    Sounds like we are ALL hypochondriacs...I always think I have cancer.

    There are certain blood tests for cancer....the normal blood counts don't usually show cancer...unless there is a significant change in the white blood cell count (usually goes lower)...

    My whole life I thought I had cancer.  I keep being told....if I keep focusing it on it...the universe will bring it to me.  But, I am just that way....I know we all die of something and people around me have had serious illnesses...so I'm always like when will it happen to me?

    its an awful way to live.  Please try to put your thoughts aside and enjoy each day as it comes...and go to the Dr. regulary...eat well..drink fluids....that's all we can do.
