Fed up of worrying about my health!

So I now think I have esophagus cancer or stomach cancer!

I’m 23 year old female.... suffered with health anxiety since about 16.

So for a while on and off I’ve had spouts of acid that makes me gag and dry wrench....

I’ve also had streaks of blood in my saliva.

Of course I googled it and now I’m convinced there’s something really serious going on!

I’m constantly pestering my doctors and they do the tests and show me nothing is wrong then something else crops up and I believe I have another condition!

People think I’m mad or being a “hypochondriac” but what if one day I’m right? And something really is serious

A few thoughts on this- it won’t go away, the symptoms will persist. And a doctor will probably be able to diagnose it without our google insights. 😉

I’m the same way. They tell me negative on one thing, then I get symptoms of something else. My health is all I think about. Everyone keeps telling me it’s all in my head!
