I think one of the biggest struggle of the health anxious person is questioning our own instincts when it comes to health - is this real or is it in my head? - especially after years of people dismissing concerns as anxiety. There is a balance and it seems like you really did strike it here by taking a clear and measured course of diagnosis. I'm sorry about your diagnosis, which must be scary! But, like you said earlier, thyroid cancer is very treatable and I hope you can have things taken care of quickly!
Keep us posted!
