hi kyle,

its just general health anxiety, any little ache or pain causes you to worry or convince yourself that your dying of some illness or disease, i suffer with this too, whatever you do dont googl symptoms that you have - it will only make things worse to cope with.

hope this helps :)

Yeah I have suffered from this quite badly. A few years ago I was convinced I was going blind, then it changed to worrying I had cancer, then it changed to worrying about losing my mind.

You just need to find a way to distract yourself and think positive, ask yourself is there a rational reason why you're worried about any certain aspect of your health?
