Hi all I have noticed over the last few weeks I have become a terrible hypochondriac; literally worry about every ache, pain, bruise ....... has anyone else developed this ?

I just read through this whole thread. Wow we are all so much alike.. We keep the pharmaceutical / vitamin people in business and make the doctors rich. That’s why there isn’t a cure. 😂 I am so tired of going to the doctor. I am always fighting this one. It’s the worst symptom for me by far!!! It comes and goes in waves now. I will be okay for a couple of weeks and then a freak for a couple of weeks. Crying, praying, trying not to google, cutting out all social media, commercials and as many people as i can. I try to absorb myself into an old tv show and try not to let my brain think about anything else. Yes I know that’s not how the female brain works but I try.

I completely agree. I remember when my sister went through it. She was going from a doctor to doctor. The same with my cousin. That's exactly why there is no cure. Menopause is big business.

So your sister and your cousin are all better? Please say yes😬. I just got home from getting my routine mammogram. I’m exhausted....mentally! Now I will be nonfunctional until they call with the results. I mean seriously I just shut down 😔.

I'm the same way. My husband had to take me. I'd never be able to do it alone.

My sister is better and so is my cousin, except for the occasional bout with gas(I don't see or talk to her as often since she lives 2 hours away). But my sister is definitely better(we live in the same city so I see and talk to her often).

But don't get me wrong, I still have health anxiety big time. When I go to the doctor waiting for test results are toture! I have three more doctor visits this year. Cardiologist, Podiatrist, and Dentist. Guess which one I'm freaking out about? The Cardiologist of course! Then I wonder if I should worry about the other two.🤣🤣🤣🤣
