Still unsure!

[Betha]

Afraid still!

So I have stomach issues and my GP is convinced it is from my anxiety! I have had multiple tests including an internal ultrasound, complete blood work and a CT scan with contrast of my abdomen and pelvis. I am still worried as my stomach pain comes and goes and I read that this could be pancreatic cancer, or stomach cancer. However my CT scan came back unremarkable!

So what scares me is I read mis diagnosed me here mis diagnosed me there! How can you be confident in that diagnosis.

Then when I read the CT scan I see that all of my organs is unremarkable but my bladder is grossly unremarkable! Why is one grossly and one not!

Thoughts?

What symptoms do you have with your stomach?

[Betha]

It depends! I am not in agony or anything it is more gas pain! I am not constipated and I don't have diahrea. I feel hungry even when I am not! Not all the time but sometimes.

What scares me is misdiagnosis!

[Mrsamsouth in reply to Betha]

You just have to trust them and try and carry on but if it gets worse or you get other symptoms maybe go back and tell them how you feel about being misdiagnosed

True! I am seeing a GI doctor on Monday! everyone I speak too thinks it is anxiety!

Hello love, I'm sorry that you are going trough this....as long as the doc says you are healthy and he/she don't see anything, I would leave it alone....I know it's hard not to think that something is wrong...I am the same way, my psychologist is telling me that I am hypnotizing my mind by Googling everything....the more you search for answers the more you are going to make your anxiety worse! Try to relax and mediate! You have a healthy diagnosis and that's a great thing to have!! 😊

That is true but it is so hard especially when your stomach bothers you! Your mind goes from what extreme to the next
