Hi everyone!
Well I have got up today and I am starting to worry about my health again!!When will i get a day free from it?? A couple of weeks ago when we were on hols it was great cos i really did have a few days when i never thought about it but back at home it all starts again.
I have now moved from the swelling on my neck(for those who dont know i have had it all checked out and given the all clear!!!) to feeling for lumps and bumps everywhere else.
Since having under my arms checked(and yes that was ok!) I have now moved to feeling my groin.
I did post the other day but didnt get many replies so then started to worry that it is maybe something serious and no one dare reply(yep mad i know but this is what this blasted anxiety does to me!!!).I am constantly poking hard which i know is wrong but cant stop---each side and feeling grissly bits and then thinking crikey this is it I have found something sinister. I then feel OH and his is the same. I have even had my grown up son checking his groin and telling me to shut up cos he has the same as i am describing.
Why i am torturing myself day in day out?
I do have really bad PMT today which i know makes things soooo much worse. I also feel sorry for my OH today as he says he is feeling stressed cos i am stressing so and that i have been given the all clear so why cant i just accept that and get on with my life like i used to. I said that i am asking myself the same thing and if I could do that i would!!!!!
Roll on the CBT as I am hopeful that may do the trick. Also, I am starting on propranalol next week(just finishing the current course of migraine tablets) ---these he has prescribed for anxiety and migraines.
Thanks for any advice xxxx
