Stomach Sensations
Posted , 1 user is following.
for the past month I have had weird sensations in my stomach - Loud gurgling, random nags around bellybutton and what I can only describe as tight nervousness at the top of my abdomen. I also have been having irregular periods and breast soreness. I have extreme health anxiety, so googling sends me down terrifying rabbit holes.
I went to my doctor a couple of weeks ago and he was not concerned about cancer at all, he said it was likely digestive as well as stress. But my hypochondria makes me over focus on everything and I second-guess him even though I trust him tremendously.
My anxiety has gotten so bad that I asked my doctor for Ativan again a couple days ago. However when I’m looking at my symptoms, I don’t have any other issues that would make me think I have cancer or anything like that and the thought of visiting a doctor to get a scan is terrifying to me. When I got my period eight days early this week, it occurred to me I might be a perimenopausal. I am 42 years old. I went to my doctor a couple of weeks ago and he was not concerned about cancer at all, he said it was likely digestive as well as stress. But my hypochondria makes me over focus on everything and I second-guess him even though I trust him tremendously.
did anyone else experience these symptoms? Looking for comfort and would prefer her not to be told to get a scan for some kind of colon or stomach cancer as I cannot deal with that right now.
Thank you in advance!
