Convinced I have Cervical Cancer. HELP
Posted , 5 users are following.
So I've been on recently about sore armpits, hands and feet and breasts.
I am now freaking out due to having vaginal bleeding (very bright red- almost pink) in between periods. My last period finished just over a week ago so I'm not due.
It also doesn't help that I have pain in my back/kidney area too on my right side.
I have kidney stones (on my left side) so that doesn't help differentiating the pain. I am absolutely freaking out. My health anxiety is soaring. I'm not well with a sore throat and chest cough so I'm weak as it is.
I looked up symptoms of cervical cancer and I have most symptoms. Could this all be anxiety related??
Wish I could catch a break.

Thanks Lee!!
Having health anxiety really sucks the life out of me. Wow, you had a lot of symptoms.
I'll go and get a smear test done anyway for peace of mind. Will be fine until my next google diagnosis.
Just broke down crying to my partner about how dark a place I'm in thinking this way and constantly thinking about death and when my time is. It kinda helped but I hate making her feel like she's helpless. I must exhaust her with my OCD in all this!!

I'm not on birth control pills and couldn't be pregnant as I'm in a same sex relationship.

Sorry to hear about your friend. The likelihood of you having the same will be slim, but I know what you mean, everything is possible in our minds.
We catastrophise unnecessarily and really takes over our lives. I need to enjoy my life. I have so many good things in it and I'm forgetting that because of my crazy, dark thoughts x
