Hi, so I have been having severe health anxiety since april, it all started with breast cancer fears, then sarcoma, then lung cancer, so on and so on. in July I stopped worrying all together which made me so happy. Then early august I started getting weird headaches . they arent painful, they feel like someone is pressing down on the top left sided of my head. It'll travel a bit to the forehead, then the back of the head, but it stays on the left side, specifically on the top left part. I get it everyday for a few hours, mainly up until night time, lying down helps it go away.
Of course my health anxiety is telling me it is brain cancer, I tried to look up what causes this headache but i cant find any results for the area of mine. I feel like maybe since i have bad anxiety it builds up in my head now maybe? When I had a fear of cancer near my ribs I got very sharp pains there, and when I had a fear of lung cancer it got hard to breathe.
Has anyone gone through this? Should I worry at all? I really wanna fix this before I start school in the fall, thank you!
