Hi,
I've not posted on here for a long while, as my health anxiety has been pretty much at bay, and my psychologist recommended me to stop looking for reassurance.
However the last couple of days it's crept in, and gone all the way back to the fear that started me with health anxiety, and that was a mouth cancer fear. I can feel a little spot, or a little tiny piece of skin or something on the roof of my mouth. I got my boyfriend to look and he said it looks like a tiny scratch, but I'm sure I've felt it there before. Now I'm worrying that it's been there ages and ages and I should go get it checked. Does this sound far fetched? My psychologist said to stop going to the doctors and it will break the HA cycle, which is has. It's worked so well. I fear going back to the doctors will set me on the wrong path again.
Should I just ignore it?
Any help would be great x Thanks.
