I have lost about 10# since May-June, without actually trying. I had thyroid problems in the past, so I got it checked and my levels are normal...so there goes that theory. My BP was 230/169 two nights ago, it has gone down a little,but still high. I have extreme anxiety and I am really hoping that this is the problem, but my mind keeps saying it's cancer. I just switched doctors,and they can't see me until the end of next month. No other symptoms, except a slight cough and the Dr I saw at the walk in clinic said I have bad post nasal drip and my lungs sound good. I'm really really scared.
Hey, when I went through extreme Health Anxiety I also lost a bit of weight. Have you changed your diet? I know your mind will always say cancer but if the doctor has checked you and said your fine you're fine. If you need anyone to talk to I'm here. Stay positive
I’m so sorry you’re afraid! I’m going through that now. It started with me dieting and losing weight and since I had bloodwork that showed anemia, I’ve been so anxious and scared thinking cancer is causing the anemia. I think I’m eating enough to at least stay the same and sometimes I do but sometimes I lose a pound a day! Have lost 11 pounds in July since this started July 2. I’m tertibly frightened so I can relate. I e mailed my doctor for some kind of medication to help with anxiety but he never responded. I have tests in 2 weeks. I hope everything turns out fine with us. I just wanted you to
Know I understand.
Thank you, it's good to know that someone else understands. I hope you find answers soon.
