hi guys hope i find you well
i know this must be common with us people with health anxiety but wondered how others cope.
i have an overactive thyroid (you obviously may have a diff problem) and i saw my specialist about it and she asked whether i get any discomfort but i was mainly focusing on another issue that scared me with regards to my thyroid so i said no i dont get discomfort forgetting i did sometimes!
basically i am noticing this discomfort a lot know and my next appointment is in June!
do i just rationalise it because my thyroid is swollen (likely cause of discomfort) or do i get scared thinking it maybe cancer and ring up demanding to be seen sooner just to put my mind at rest.
please share you experiences on these matters, cheers
