It seemed to go well with my HA for a couple of months, but now it's returning full force. :(
A month ago I was certain I had skin cancer because I had a fleshy coloured mole (at least that's what I thought) on my underarm, which had appeared all of a sudden. Also I kept getting cold sore outbreaks in March, I had like 4 in a row. I was so scared I had some kind of life threatening immune disorder. So two weeks ago i went to see my GP for all of the above and he said the cold sores were caused by temporary low immunity. Then he checked the mole and within seconds he said that it was a cyst and completely benign. I went home feeling like an idiot because I had worked myself up again that I had the big C.
Fast forward to the present. One scare gone, another one arises. A couple of weeks ago my stomach started acting funny with feeling full very soon after starting to eat. Also I started getting nauseous. This passed, returning every now and then but not in a way that I cannot eat anything. My appetite is fine. Then I started getting pains in my abdomen. Short stabbing pains traveling here and there. They come and go.
Also, ever since the pain symptoms started again a couple of weeks ago my bowel movements have become less frequent. I don't feel constipated, but I can go like every 2, 3 days. I think it was more often before, although I have never been the person who could go daily.
Then yesterday I got really anxious since the traveling stomach pain localized to one place, under my right ribs towards the middle. It also feels kind of full there, but that could just be my imagination. The pain was sometimes constant yesterday in that place, and aggravated with deep breathing and certain movements. Also at times it went away for a while. It's so scary that I feel it in one place, where other times the pain traveled and wasn't so constant.
In the evening my boyfriend came over and I talked to him about it. When he held me I felt like all of my ribs hurt. On my lower ribs I have (both on the left and right side) painful spots when you push them, like they are bruised. I cannot pinpoint if that is where the pain under my right rib is coming from. And if the pain in/under my ribs is related to the 'constipation' and stomach issues... I am so scared that I have a serious illness (like C), and that I am very ill. Now I think I have lost weight, too...
This night I didn't feel the pain again under my ribs, it seems to have traveled again, but I'm not saying it out too loud before the pain hits me again. Also right now (it is morning) I haven't felt it yet.
Does all of this sound familiar to you? Need some reassurance, I'm very scared...
