Hello Lindsey. If you've been checked by a doctor recently, yes - you are just having anxiety. If you haven't been checked, get checked.... it helps for a while. I also let physical sensations get the best of me sometimes and it's taken a while (and a lot of support from doctors) to improve the health anxiety habit.

Thank you ❤

I also used to get this, the head thing about 10 years ago, my breasts last year like they were on fire, I'm still here... I wonder what the breast thing is though it's so weird

Hello, I understand completely,

I have dizziness, off and on, neck pain, pain in the back of my head, top of my head, front of my head... ant many other symptoms..

So far all tests and such have come back clear...

It's hard to believe, but anxiety can cause all these issues, and many more.

I know it's scary..

Hang in there..

Yes ! You are " over thinking."

Remember the old saying..what you worry about never happens. Don't let your negative thinking fooĺ you.
