Look. I Know How You Feel. I Just Looked At It Like This. "IF" It's Cancer ? It's Already There. What Good Will Panic & Anxiety Do If It Was ? NOTHING. "IF" Not ? Good. Go To The Doc & Ease Your Fears & Worries. Me ? If It Is ? Let's Get In There & Get It Out. [ Remember Early Detection Is Everything ] If It's Not ? GOOD. Ease Your Mind. Go To The Doc.

Thanks know you are right. So difficult takes over your life

I was the same when my dad was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Unfortunately it’s just part of health anxiety. It’s extremely unlikely that you have it and cancer can be very treatable nowadays.
