Hello All!!! I am and have been suffering from Health Anxiety for MANY years. Its been at bay for 6 or 7 months and today it reared its ugly head at me!!!! I know its just evil thoughts and I know I need to ignore them, but its hard!! I had an old back injury YEARS ago was supposed to complete therapy and didnt do so. I lost alot of weight it went almost away wasnt so bad...then now im married, gained weight, and started sewing...well I wasnt in the correct posture and lower back started aggravating me, down my butt and leg aka sciatic nerve...needless to say I googled :( So here I am freaking out again...
