My Current Numerous Worries

[NoraB]

I'm in such a state I feel dizzy.

This is just HA playing games with you H.

Calm down. Have a cuppa. Breathe. X

My sister is annoyed with me because spent most last night sending videos back and forth of each other swallowing and seeing if we have same sticky out bit. She said it's normal anatomy. But mines right where thyroid is. Central and nobbly if I dig for it and if I swallow or stretch neck its there.

Swallowing videos? You should do videos on Tic Toc... there might be some money in it!

So I'm in a spiral again and convinced this is thyroid cancer. Basically the soft bit of the neck, just above that is a lump/bone. I see it when I swallow and its in line with the rest of the neck bones. My sister said she has it too but I'm sure mine is exactly where the thyroid is. It's central and small but definitely visible when swallow. I had it March, obsessed for ages and forgot about it. No change and no other concerns but I'm terrified.

I suspect you will forget about it as before and be on to a new issue tomorrow.

I don't think so, I'm convinced. I've tried to see and think it's there a year and half ago. It's literally my thyroid I believe and I can see it move when I swallow. Is that normal?

[BlueIris]

Give it a week, Reb, it'll all be forgotten and you'll have something new on your mind.

You'll probably be swearing that this time it's different, too.

How many more times do we have to ask about sticking to this thread?

[helenhoo]

I have seen a photo when I was worried about it in June, almost 8 months ago and no visible change. Would a thyroid cancer grow? Not sure if it's normal to see it? It's right in the centre and moved when swallow.

It's your larynx.

Reb do you ever think of how much time you have wasted obsessing on imaginary sh*t?

Have you ever considered volunteering that time to help the needy? What's your passion?
Animals?
Church?
Children?
Food bank?
Abused women?

Do you have a heart for anything???

Do something worthwhile with your life.

I lost a high school friend recently, guess what? She didn't poke and prod and obsess every minute of every day, she spent her time with her family and friends LIVING until her time on earth ended. Her friends and family have great beautiful memories of her.

What will your friends and family have? Pictures of the mark on your a$$? Memories of you fingering yourself? A video of you swallowing?

We are all going to die Reb, that includes YOU. Stop wasting the little time we are given on this earth.
