Hello.
For the last month I've been suffering extreme health anxiety about a hum I can hear in my head at night particularly at times of stress. Of course googling revealed this is either totally normal or something serious which has sent me into a panic for the last 4 weeks searching and searching all day for an answer because I'm afraid of visiting a Dr and getting referrals.
4 days ago I called the Dr and he told me it's not a red flag which in turn calmed me down and lo and behold the hum pretty much stopped.
NOW however I've noticed that for some reason when I read white text on black the letters are doubled slightly above the text. It clears up with a pinhole test and my eyes have been feeling dry and gritty in the last week but I'm TERRIFIED this is linked to the original problem and there's something seriously wrong.
I'm so scared of seeing a Dr and potentially having to get scans, procedures, surgery etc. I'm just looking reassurance at this stage but the fact this has seemingly popped up out of the blue is worrying according to google.
Thanks for listening.
EDIT: I should add, I'm male, 30, I use a computer all day, no other symptoms.
