For over a year I have had off and on Heath fears/issues. It started with a fear of an aneurysm after dizziness for months and when I got an mri with contrast I was cleared but then started to get terrible leg pains and pelvic pains and thought a blood clot. Again I had an mri with contrast. After that I was okay but soon started having hives and throat tightness and rashes and have had it now for 5 months. My neck with get red and my cheeks and ears burn. Several times it felt like my throat was closing and I would cough. In my head I try to say that it is anxiety making my body crazy after being under stress for so long. At the same time I’m afraid I have some food allergy as it seems whenever I eat something I have problems, but there is no connection. I went to an allergist who skin and blood tested me. The skin test showed up some items but I cut them out and nothing improved. My quality of life is greatly deteriorating. I don’t know how to feel safe or eat without fear.

    My reply is it takes time  you will over come that fear eventually just keep pushing love . I swear I had literally everything u said. I sort of smiled like woowww I thought this exact same thing too. I swear I google symptoms for aneurysm for like a week because I just knew I had it. Then I had pain in both my legs it hurt even just to walk and sometimes my foot would tingle I was like omg blood clot blood clot I have to get checked I don't want it to turn into pulmonary embolism and I die.. with my lower stomach pelvic pain I just knew I had appendicitis. And then my throat gets tight like I can't swallow or I think something is going to get stuck. But eventually I found out they were just phases u was going through. And it took about 2 months for me to stop worrying and just do. Do things u think u can't do. Face the anxiety head on

      Thank you for your words! I hope you are right. I just wish I didn’t have the hives and other things that make it so real. But if you think something long enough it is so easy to manifest symptoms.
