so i just turned 18 about a month ago and I have seemed to have a type of health anxiety because first It started back in novemeber when i started getting heart paplitations and this seemed to get worse after my non bilogical grandpa passsed away from cancer.
I since then seemed to have all kinds of sympoms and of course when straight to google and typed in my issues and now i know nothing good ever comes from that and at first i was having a brain tumor and then after that worry went away i felt like i had an AAA (aortic anyersym) but i was able to get that checked out and then i was in constant fear i was having a heart attack due to alot of chest pains i was having and i had all the heart test i need such as echo. multiple EKgs, cardiac CT, and everything was fine I also do get short of breath occasionally.
But im 18 and recently have been having muscle twitches all around my body i dont feel weak and i am scared im gonna loose muscle i havent worked out since about febuary and ive been active my whole life but feel like i cant get a job becuase a voice in my head (no litterally) keeps repeating ALS... but i lifted today for the first time in almost 5 months and nothing seemed weak i can walk and use everything on my body when i need it... but i get muscle twitches very very often... my doctor does think i have an anxiety disorder and honest i really hope so because i am terrified of ALS or something like that... the twitching is pretty much wide spread on my body and not really specific but it happens pretty often, i really dont feel fatigued or weak..
Ive read things like migraines can cause twitching and stress and anxiety can also and i might be stressed by freaking out all the time.
I really really want reassurance because this sucks should i be worried no one in my family has any type of illness or anything like that.. both my grandma and grandpa on both my mom and dads side are still living and healthy i just am so affraid that i have this terrible illness..
is anyone going through this or have before and with more symptoms im so terrified
