I'm not sure if the title is in contex but i think i'm becoming / become a hypercondriac. Recently, i got pains in my chests and I kept working myself up about it, thinking it was every heart or lung disease under the sun. Even though i went to A&E and they checked me out, saying i was fine in that area and I had indegesgion/heartburn and possibly overworked my chest muscles (which would explain the pains) but i'm still worrying about it.
Then i got a weird cold/flu thing from my dad, sore throat, swollen glands in me neck etc yet i was still convinced it was some form of cancer. Its now gone but i occasionaly feel pains in me chest like the ones i went to the hospital about. Also, taking two weeks to see the ****ing doctor! Made my appointment on the 23rd Oct and i'm seeing him tommorow (the 7th) so that hasn't helped.
I've quit smoking, cut down on the shite i eat and drink (so you could call it a diet) and then all this happens and i've just gone mental with worry. Me mum says me bodys doing loads of changes because of quitting smoking and the diet, plus its that time of year for bugs to fly about and stuff.
I mean, looking at it all now i can see i was overreacting a tad, but still, everytime something different happens i worry. Anyone else like this? Or am i being completly OTT with the whole thing.
Recently (mainly cos of the amount of time i gota wait to see the doc) i been using the net to see if i can find what i got, and obviously using the net i find shit that dont even relate to me but i might look into the symptoms of what i find and i have one of them (like a cough or something) but loads of things have a cough as a symptom, thus i start to crap myself.
