I have just watched my aunt die from cancer and i suffer from health anxiety since having m.e/cfs.The first week i felt fine and thought i can handle visiting everyday.
I felt tired and a few silly thoughts were creeping which i suppose is the start of the anxiety again. I then started the feeling like i couldnt get a breath properly and kept sighing.I started getting an ache in my left boob,left underarm,left side of back,nausea,loose bowels and then just thought i have cancer to.I went to the doctors and she gave me a breast exam and said she thought she could feel a small movable pea size lump.She said she didnt think it was anything to worry about but because of my aunt and because i was anxious that she would get me seen at the breast clinic in 2 weeks.
My anxiety is through the roof and i am constantly focusing on my boob.Me and my partner have felt and we cant feel a lump but she must have. I am so worried and i woke up through night sweating so that made me worse thinking its because i have breast cancer etc.
Can anxiety cause all these pains and aches. Every time i eat i get instant stomach pains.I am driving myself mad.
