    Hi I'm sorry your having a major meltdown regarding blood test results.

    Can you tell me why you are so worried especially when you have been checked out at hospital and told your ok and what exactly do you think they are hiding from you.

    Also how old are you

      Being on your own will definitely make your health anxiety become more prominent but im sure you have nothing to worry about and cutting out red meat want do you any harm at all so long as you get your protein elsewhere.

      Have you cut out caffeine that would definitely help, it takes a few weeks to adjust but i promise it helps with it.
