I don't know how much more I can take of this now. 100% convinced I have cancer now. Too many symptons that all keep directing me to believe I have cancer. I am now at the point where I believe I could actually kill myself to end all the pain & suffering.

Hi Michael83 , I too experience the pains u describe! Sounds like your anxiety have gotten the best of your thought process! Try to relax friend we're all here for support. Try listening or watching soothing music or video it helps a lot go to YouTube , hope u feel better
It has been over a year now and has got worse. I have been for x ray ultrasounds blood test. I have been to my doctors about 30 times in the last year alone. I have had a cold for the last few days with a real heavy cough. Today the cough is breaking up the phlem and I found a speck of blood in it and now have convinced myself I have lung cancer. When will all this end,
I think the same thing almost everyday of my life! I feel it's just a matter of time until I get cancer, it's so annoying! Every little symptom I experience turns into me obsessing how it has to be cancer, etc..etc..I truly believe that I have more of a mental problem that needs to be dealt with so I may go see a therapist, you might benefit from one as well.
Hello
Are you getting any help with your anxiety because you obviously are suffering with Health Anxiety here and some support and therapy would really help you to make sense of all this and change your pattern of thinking
You have had every test by the sounds of it , why would you think the professionals would get it so wrong and not pick up anything serious if there was anything , because your anxiety keeps control by feeding your fear
I read you have had a cold and sounds like you have had quiet a bad one , when we do and we are coughing a lot we can break little blood vessels which can produce in the spots of blood but usually this settles down , unless this became worse then I would think it is part of your cold but if you keep seeing it check in with your Doctor but I am sure they will not find anything sinister but always best to check as it can give you peace of mind
We have to trust the Doctors and when we have Health Anxiety we have to work on this trust but why would they want to miss something and not get someone that needed treatment the right help if they had something like cancer , they would all get struck of and they don't want that !
This can and will get better but please even if you have had support before go back and ask for more because that is what you really need , you have got something wrong with you and it is called Health Anxiety , makes us feel low and if it is driving us mad but it won't kill you
Hi Michael 83. I believed to that I had something seriously wrong with me. I went to Dr after Dr trying to get help. It was awful. I had a racing heart, sweating. Diarrhoea, heartburn, body aches, burning feelings in both legs, my face was numb and my whole body turned red. Every Dr I Went to told me that it was anxiety. My first thought was omg am I going to have to live like this the rest of my life. I was horrified of that thought. Stay strong. I know that can be hard at times. When I have good days I take full advantage of it!
