Hi every1. I am beside myself with worry! I cant talk to any1. They all think im completely bonkers and im not. For those of you who havent read my messages before, Ive been complaining of a persistant itch all over my body for 2 wks now. Havent went to the docs because i thought he'd say what he usually does its nothing serious stop worrying! I thought maybe it might pass but it hasnt, Its got so much worse. Ive been googling and yes i know i shouldnt but i was worried as id never had this feeling before. Every thing that was coming up was hodkins Lymphoma.( Those of you who have read my messages before will be sick of hearing this!) At first i got really paranoid but then thought well i have no more of the other symptoms which were stated its just my HA going into overdrive, but now i do and im worrying myself sick!
I have been getting roaring temeratures for no reason the last couple of days, I am now really breathless and have a cough. Both of these things are other sighns of lymphoma. Also i have been riving really bad at my skin today with the itch (no rash by the way). I was out for a friends bday last nite and i read today that the itch related to lymphoma gets worse after drinking alcohol! Rang the GP today in a state of panic but cant see him till monday. I know i need to go and be firm and say this is my symptoms i want some tests done but i am affraid of finding out the worst which im pretty sure i will. My boyfriend thinks im attention seeking and my parents thinks its all in my head! I feel so alone and plagued by fear i dont know what to do. I have a 19 month old little boy and dread to think that if my fears do turn out to be reality he may not have a mum for much longer. As morbid as that sounds thats what goes through my head. Please give me some advice or if someone has had lymphoma or similar symptoms your messages would be greatly appreciated.
