I am so worried I'm driving myself insane.
I've booked a doctors appt for Monday because I'm so scared I've got Lymphoma or Leukemia.
I have a never ending list of symptoms, they are.
Feeling extremely tired in the mornings and sluggish but unable to sleep at night.
After lunch feeling hot all the time, face feels like it's burning, sometimes sore throat/headache.
My alleriges are so bad no amount of hayfever tablets, sprays are touching it.
A rash has appeared on my upper chest/neck which only comes on early/late evening or after I go to bed, not itchy just blotchy.
Eyes constantly uncomfortable, watery, gritty and bloodshot.
Skin sometimes itchy on lower legs but on the whole skin so dry that no amount of moisturising cures it.
Irregular light periods (Had scans etc, radiographer said perfectly normal could be perimenopuasal and get hormone levels/thyroid checked)
Hair breaking off.
Feeling like I have swollen glands but can't actually feel any swollen so not sure if that's my anxiety playing havoc.
The small part of my rational brain tells me that these symptoms could all be down to anxiety and bad allergies but I can't stop crying because I think it's Leukemia or Lymphoma.
I have to speak to the doctor as I have to have blood tests done but I'm so scared of the results I just don't think I can cope sitting waiting for the doctor to ring with bad news :(
Sorry I just felt like I had to put it all down in writing :lac:
