I cant seem to switch off from the fear of being diagnosed with the C word.
Fairly recently I was told I had acid reflux, I have been having and still do constant pain between my shoulders, more painful sometimes when I eat.
Then over christmas Ive had issues with some liver tests where my GGT levels where coming out at 130, so Ive not had a single drink since new year :(
And now all my neck feels swollen, it feels like my glands are up but it dont look like it, my throat really hurts inside down one side, im convinced my arm pits feel tender, then last night convinced myself i had a swelling just above my collar bone. The doctor says I dont have lymphoma, but a virus which at the moment is doing the rounds, and said it would take 3-4 weeks to get rid of it.
Although the doctor was really understanding, I felt slightly brushed off, no tests no nothing. The swelling and pain isnt subsiding so now that is really worrying me.
Is there a virus at the moment doing the rounds? I dunno, alot of people at work seem to be ill at the moment, but saying that they have been ill since early december.
Just felt like i had to let it out someway because to be fair I think my partner is getting a bit bored of hearing about my health symptoms.
:weep:
