Seriously freaking out now. Can anyone help please?!

Hi. Okay, so I know I shouldn't have but I just couldn't help it - yip I googled. Now I'm in work going out of my mind with worry about this sensation that I keep having in my leg. :weep:I have looked at other forums and there was one post which someone had complained about the same thing and then someone replied to say they need to get to the Doctor straight away. Obviously, I am now sitting here with things going all through my head worrying about MS and other things. I am only 19 - is this a common thing for someone of my age? Please someone re-assure me. If you look back at my previous threads you will see some of my recent worries. I am not sure if it is just my imagination as the sensations seem to come and go. Please reply! Thanks x

Hi Natalie, I've looked at just the titles of some of your previous threads and to me they just shout health anxiety. I have read that the average age for developing MS is 37. I know quite a lot of people who have it and they were all diagnosed in their 30s or 40s. Please take some reassurance from this x
