so for the past few weeks maybe a few months now i have not felt 100%
been to the doctors around 8 times to see 4 different doctors
it started as leg pain one day at work, i sat funny infrOnt of my to large of computer screen for a good 9 hours solid, i stood up and felt a pain I'n My leg, thought nothing of it, spoke to my girlfriend on the phone and mentioned it, she turned round and mentioned that her step dad had a pain I'n his leg as a sign of cancer... Nice for her to say that, i didn't think much of it i don't get to bothered about things and i had the pain for only a few hours!
For some reason i went home and decided to check my testicles as you do lol! Found a tiny lump and hAd the worst end of the world feeling ever!!!!
I then got it I'n my head that was it for me! Crazy thoughts of death etc which was just silly of me!
I went to the doctors to be told 3 times over it was nothing and i was making it worse by playing with it...
the thoughts finally passed and the worries left.
then a few weeks back i started feeling diZzy only because i had work worries and had spent weeks stressing about life and health etc. I went to the doctors and i was told i had a panic stress issue.
Then around 3 weeks ago i noticed that on the bAck of my head where most people have those bones either side of the occipital Bone, one of the bones was a lot larger than the other side. I went back to the doctors to be told it was a tense muscle where my skull meets my neck.
It has some what shrunk but still there, not so tight however, I started to worry about my health again, i got headaches dizzy, i started thinking brain issue! So i googled my symptoms and what a mistake that was, brain tumor, brain anarisum, etc etc
Luckily i had a holiday the following weeks, i just put it all out of my mind, other than a few moments when i thought about it i was fine. I got a insect bite on the side of my neck whilst away and now I'm home i have got a new tiny lump I'n my neck about the size of a bit of corn, it feels like a small pea i guess i thought lymph node due to bite but I'n the back of my head i keep linking it to the other lump on my head, i keep playing with it and making it worse, do people just think I'm over stressing and mad, no1 can feel this new lump except me and it's not changed size.
The docs think I'm fine,
Every1 thinks its I'n my head
I hope it is
I have had no tests such as blood or ct etc but docs don't see the need. Do you think it's just a case of worry and stress
I'm 21 just, dont drink Much don't smoke. work way to hard for my age and worry far to much.
but i just find it so odd as i never use to be so aware of my body.
I'm starting to think far to much about life death and how short and scary it is to the point i have lost my emotions and happy self. I feel i just need to be told I'm fine and i will forget about it. Such and odd thing and i use to laugh of people with anxiety and stress problems I'm 21 and worrying To much

so so.
i just seem to have turned into a hypochondriac this past few months.
the lump started me off, i never thought anything would go wrong with me, and it just sort of hit home that things do go wrong, i then got myself into a routine of googling anything that is wrong, only to always be linked to cancer or deathly issues!
i now have a lump on my occipital, well a muscle swell the doc said from tight muscles caused by tension, i am getting over paniced about it, and having funny daze like sensations, and extreme worry that im ill from some horrible illness...
and to make matter worse i now have a small lump in my neck sorta where your posturer cervical nodes are. (i did have a bite in this area when on holiday) i assume its this but in the back of my head i keep thinking what if its something else...
im going MAD!
i sat here at work today and i try to stop myself googling symptoms but its become almost an addiction, i know if i play with said lump on neck it will get bigger which im doing and it is! and even though im know this im getting panicked that it is growing slowly!
also in the back of my head my doc said the swell on my head will go, its been 4 weeks, still there! maybe a lil smaller and less tight and more wobbly but its there.
I use to laugh at people who suffered with hypochondria but im know one of those people! i personally blame by girly for getting it in my head with the whole leg ache thing... im joking but she did kinda start the long winding road!
