Hi, my name is Jamie, I have just joined the forum.. I am 32 year old male in London.
I have been experiencing health anxiety for about 2 years now, on and off, good periods and bad.. Having a bad one at the moment and yes I am one of those who google every symptom and quite often make myself feel worse - but I am just looking for reassurance..
I have been depressed and anxious this week, convincing myself that I have something really wrong with me (terminally).. am feeling very frustrated by it all.. basically this particular occasion I have a mild tightness choking like sensation in my throat with some mild hoarseness, my stomach has been playing up so I have been feeling sick and I have these twinges in the centre of my torso - or rather the point where the lower ribs meet near the centre... About a year ago I had a full MOT, blood counts, chest x ray etc because of my health anxieties at the time but its been just over a full year
now so things could have changed so much, not been able to relax all week but I feel encouraged by some of the things I am reading at the moment..
Anyway thats me at the moment!!
All the best
Jamie
