Hello All,
I am looking for some help/guidance as I really don’t know what to do anymore. For the past 3 months I have been seeing a therapist and am on 15 mg of mirtazapine. I am a 24 year old male who has seen roughly 15 different doctors since January, by every blood test is healthy. I have this fear that I have cancer. Any mole or scab is cancer. Any bowl movement is cancer as I think I see blood, although I’ve had 2 negative fecal occult tests since January. I can’t tell whether or not im having shortness of breath, and I get scared about a lymph node in my neck that is 7mm. any ache and pain I get I think cancer is causing it. I don’t know what to do anymore as I’m giving it everything I have. I don’t trust doctors since they misdiagnosed my brother who had and now is in remission with a rare auto immune disease. My mother has had breast cancer twice and has won both times. I know I have severe health anxiety and somatic symptom disorder, but I cannot grasp the fact that I am healthy and im too busy worrying that im not enjoying my life. I ask that people with this experience share their experience with me as im not seeking re-assurance, but rather some insight and hope. Thank you all for reading!
