Hi all, I use to use this forum a while ago for different fears of different illnesses. For a little back story, I've thought i've had many cancers before. I am a 21 year old female in my first year transferred to a university. Through my pass i've had horrible headaches, as soon as I got a clear CT they went away. I've thought I had liver cancer, with rib pain, as soon as they confirmed I didn't it went away. So i thought to myself, maybe i'm making these symptoms up, since they go away immediately after being confirmed they aren't sinister. So, in June, I was having knee pain for weeks, it would wake me up and I was certain it was cancer of the bone, then one day(TMI) I had blood after wiping a stool and the knee pain went away, thus began my new fear, one which is a symptom I cannot make up. Colon cancer. I spoke to a gastro. doctor who confirmed due to having a big stool I probably had a hemorrhoid, I haven't bled since, however, starting on and since that day, my stomach has been having on and off stomach aches relieved by a stool and occasional mucus. I know I am not making this symptom up as you can actually see it this time. Now my doctor has no trust in me and I feel trapped and depressed. Any advice? Can stress really cause mucus? stomach aches? weight gain?
