Hello, I'm looking for advice from my fellow HA friends. Tomorrow I was able to get an appointment with my doctor(this is rare for me to get it this easily and quickly), a lot of the time when I go I get blown off and they suggest for me to stop worrying and that's all. I have legitimate concerns and hate being made to feel like my concerns aren't being at least looked over. I have multiple things about my health I want to address with them that I am fearing right now, but feel like if I address too much they will just assume I am over exaggerating. I have the pea size lymph node on my neck as well as my lingering cough. The cough is definitely subsiding so I am not sure if it is worth mentioning but also fear that if I don't I will think about it and go down a rabbit hole again. I also wanted to mention when I choked on a pill that i cut in half and it hurt me to swallow the next three days, because I am not sure if maybe it wasn't the pill that bothered my throat and maybe a tumor or something. Lastly, most importantly I was diagnosed with a benign fibroadenoma 3 years ago, which has since grown about (grows and shrinks a little with my menstrual cycle) 2 more cm since. I am fearing that this is actually breast cancer that they missed that has spread and caused all my other symptoms. How should I even go about this to my doctor without sounding like I have health anxiety so that they won't blow me off? I am also worried this is actually the time I will be told something is very wrong.
