Back on here, calming myself down with a read of this. Am in the midst of worst health anxiety bout so far. Have gone through three types of cancer in a week and am back to having everything I read about or see on TV. I think I have actually got some form of mild cold and started coughing two days ago. A dry cough, and only a couple of times at first but had bad bout when I woke that has me convinced it is something terminal.
Really annoyed as I had a good couple days re recently when I felt sensible and positive. But it seems that I am only fine whilst I have no symptoms to nag at me and nag away at.
It started 18 months ago and has become a deeply ingrained habit, a sort of permanent groove in my thought process. But am also concerned that oestrogen only HRT makes it worse, not better. Any advice from the other side of this nightmare would be very welcome!
