Soo I'm 24 and I'm pretty sure I've developed health anxiety..
I had terrible stomach pains a few weeks back and turned to dreaded google for help.. Ever since I've been convinced I have bowel cancer.
I went to the doctors who diagnosed me with a urine infection but I found a lump under my armpit last week and went to a&e - the doctor told me it was just a gland.
For the past two days I'm back to worrying about my belly - I have a stinging pain by my belly button which I'm worried is caused by a rumour or ulcer.
I have been waking up in the night after bad dreams about my health and work and rushing to the loo. I've been shaky, naseous and hot and cold for a few hours afterwards.
This happened at work yesterday too...
Could these be night time panic attacks?
Has anyone else experienced anything similar?
