I'm wondering if anyone can help, or who has been through anything similar. Obviously, I suffer from health anxiety, or I would not be on this forum. For the past few days, I've been having mid - upper back pain. Sometimes it comes on after eating a meal. Last night I was out at a restaurant and ate a big bowl of pasta. A half hour later, my stomach was aching and I had a lot of back pain. I did a bad thing and googled. Pacreatitis and pancreatic cancer came up. I ended up taking to advil and a tums. An hour or so later I felt a bit better.
I have been worried sick over this. It's happened once or twice in the past year or two. But, now i'm having constant achiness in my upper back and neck. I do sit at a desk all day. Who knows what it could be? Has anyone had pancreatitis? Should I be at the hospital right now? I have no stomach pain right now, just an achy back. Is this something that can come and go? I'm scared of doctors and hospitals-- FYI. I also have to stop catastrophizing. I just don't know when something is truly wrong with me anymore. Thank you all for listening.
