Hi Trish,

No hun I very much doubt your body is full of cancer :hugs: thats just the health anxiety goblin interfering as usual. I too get a lot of muscle tension all over my body arms, legs, back, neck, shoulders so your not alone. Big hugs for you Trish :hugs: xxx

Hello Trish !
This is not cancer. I bet you've had loads of tests and stuff all come back clear. Mandy's right you are in a high state of anxiety which is causing your body muscles to tense up. Just by accepting this explanation will begin to calm those frayed nerves. Hang in there.
Be kind to yourself
