OK So. I'm an 18 year old female and all throughout my life I've gotten these dull aches in my legs and arms that last for a few hours and then go away. Growing up, I figured these were just growing pains but I'm 18 years old now and I still have them and I think I may be experiencing them more frequently now?? For instance, my right arm is aching right now and I have no idea why. I'm really concerned that this is bone cancer or MS or something else serious. I was just wondering if this is something I should be really worried about or not :/ My therapist thinks that I have hypochondria but I'm honestly thinking this is a pretty valid concern? I can't go to the doctor because I get such bad anxiety so like. This could really be something serious and I'm dying??? Idk it's just really stressing me out and idk what to do or if I should be concerned of if getting dull aches and pains in my arms and legs periodically is actually normal or what :weep:
