Umm I doubt it very much. There is no way I could walk 4 miles a day!

It sounds to me as though you are stuck in a cycle of ruminating about your health anxiety. I think most of us on here have got stuck into this one at some time or other, and the way our minds work, as soon as we have satisfied ourselves that we haven't got Problem A, then we start worrying about Problem B, and so on until we drive ourselves nuts.

The hard bit is breaking the cycle, finding something else to think about instead of our own body functions. It's like we have turned our eyes inwards on ourselves instead of outwards to the world.

And yes, I think it's very unlikely you'd be able to walk 4 miles every day, Like NMP, I don't think I could - I have severe arthritis in my left ankle and it would be far too uncomfortable if I tried that on a regular basis!
