I need some input before i lose my mind.
We had a family death 10 days ago and i was there etc.A few days before she died i was getting pains in my side and left boob and mild diarrhea and i couldnt stop crying.I went to the doctors and she did a breast exam and she thought she could feel a pea size lump which moved but she didnt think it was anything to worry about but would send me to get checked over because i was anxious and because my aunt had just died.My anxiety rocketed and i was acting like i had been told i had breast cancer.
I now have pains in my back,side,shoulder,shoulder blades.left side of abdomen etc.I have constant tension in my body and waves of panic running through my body and butterflies.My bowels are very loose/watery and make strange noises and i have to go straight away.I was awake all night because my stomach felt full and uncomfortable.
I am now thinking i have some other terminal illness thats causing all these things and i am making myself worse.I know worry and anxiety can cause these things but i cant stop thinking i am dying of stomach cancer with having pains in my back and loose stools and nausea.
I keep thinking of my aunts symptoms and thinking i am the same.
Does this sound like anxiety or have i to many symptoms?
