Hi, I am getting myself into such a panic, I suffer terribly from Health Anxiety and my latest fear is Stomach Cancer. I went to my GP about a year ago because I was getting discomfort right at the top of my stomach (where the ribs part), especially on waking in the morning. He told me it was acid indegestion. Well I have had similar bouts of this on and off but I am also suffering from bouts of nausea, a couple of times it has woken me in the night, just feeling yucky and heart thudding and feeling a bit hot. I'm not actually sick and it does pass. Still get this discomfort in my stomach on and off every day, I know my anxiety probably doesn't help and I am constantly worrying myself about it. I also suffer with IBS when I get anxious too. I am 53 and my periods are getting much more irregular, four months without one then two periods only two weeks apart, wondered whether it could be a symptom of the Menopause. I am not taking any medication at the moment. I would be so grateful for some replies as I feel so worried about myself at the moment it is spoiling things for me. Thank you for taking the time to read my post.
