Hi Everyone

Came across this site and decided to join

I am a male in my forties married with one son

Trouble is i feel I suffer from Carcinophobia, A day does not go by without me thinking that I may be getting a cancer

Spots on my skin, lumps under my skin, headaches all get checked out to be nothing to worry about

I am at my wits end with these negative thoughts and i don't know how I am going to improve, i know my wife is sick and tired of my worries

Don't know what to do for the best, hope some one on here can help me to move on

Hello and welcome to no more panic,

Everyone is great on here, I have found this a great help!

I suffer exactly the same things as you, I always think i have something wrong with me, I keep thinking i have got a cancer, i get a headache and automatically alarms ringing telling me i have a brain tumor, its a visious circle,

Hope to speak to you some more, and maybe see you in the chat room x

Porcupine!!

You are not alone hun, so many suffer from anxiety of the big 'C' i had no idea it even had a name!

Pop into chat sometime, you will meet some lovely peeps who are going through the same and you will see there can be light at the end of the tunnel and you can get back on track.

See you in there soon I hope :hugs:

Hi Porcupine,

Welcome to NMP. Many here will understand how you are feeling and will give their support. If I were you, I would make an appointment with a Dermatologist and get checked out, then you would know that you are okay and have nothing to worry about. I do this once a year because I am so fair skinned and lived in Florida most of my life, it really does ease your mind. It's always nice to know you aren't alone!

Take care,

Laura
