Me again. Leg feels bruise, no bruise.

[helenhoo]

On the luekemia worry (only slightly) I have a few small bruises dotted some accounted for but one part of my calf feels bruised with no bruise? Only when I touch it?

[Elen]

Reb hun, please don't take this the wrong way, but I am concerned over the number and variety of posts recently.

Seeking re-assurance can end up being incredibly addictive and I would hate to see you go down that route.

I really hope you take this in the spirit that it is intended as I do not mean it as a criticism.

[helenhoo]

Oh I do and oddly enough ive felt better. I've not had any major concerns just the odd here and there.

Reb,

I think Elen is right and I think that you're just fine! People have responded to almost the same exact post not to long ago. I also need to start getting this Anxiety treated and I think you do as well. I'm not trying to sound mean as I need help myself.

[helenhoo]

I guess so it's just hard.

[Nzxt27]

Yeah. If your really that worried over all the stuff it might help to see a doctor. They can easy your mind on a lot of it probably just by looking at it without any test.

Reb,

It IS hard. So hard. I can't give you any lovely success story as I'm new to the awful road of fighting anxiety. But hard as it is, I don't want to be scared anymore. I want to fight it as best I can.

Do you have anyone you could talk to?

[helenhoo]

I'm still less than a year in this horrid state and I am a lot better than ive been. I have family friends and boufriend but ive asked so many questions the past few months. I've just started to taste 'blood/metallic' too lol.

Good luck with your journey.

I've just started to taste 'blood/metallic' too lol.

I agree with the previous posters. The number and subject matter of your posts truly indicate some severe anxiety. I see a lot of ~lol~ and "haha" but this is no laughing matter. IMO, getting some professional help is warranted as you're having difficulty rationalizing common body noise. The "blood/metallic" taste is yet another symptom of anxiety.

Best wishes and as always

Yeah I think you should go see a doctor and talk with them. I mean most people here are suffering from health anxiety towards something or two. But if your really having all these symptoms I would have done made a DR appointment. Heck I got one next week and the doctor acted like I didn't even need one when I went to the ER. But I can't keep going like this. It's affecting me and the people around me.

And I just had a buddy that had crazy bruise like maybe something to do with his nerves and it looked bad like bigger than a soft ball of dark areas with light areas In between them. He thought was a circulation problem and went to hospital and they said it was bruise with some nerve damage. Bruises can look different then just the common dark spot.
