I am still afraid I have got something serious wrong with me, even though I have had some tests done, which have come back fine over the last 14 months.

I know in December last year I had a scan done to see whether I need keyhole, even though I got an appointment with the specialist to find out whether I need keyhole. If I was serious I know the doctors will not hang about and get me on with treatment.

Over the last three years I have been worried about a lot about cancer, diabetes etc. I am scared about every pain, niggle etc. I am scared about the cancer.

When I had a ulcer earlier this year, I worried it was mouth cancer.

I try not to strain when going to the loo, as I might strain my tailbone.

I have had CBT help for a number of weeks, my checking has not gone down much and reassurance. my CBT coach has picked up quite a bit, he thinks that sometimes my posture may be causing me to get tension etc.

I am worrying all the time it needs to stop. I am done okay not looking at daily mail, now prefer telegraph or independent paper online. which is still as bad.
