If a doc says you’re ok, then the rest is made up. In your mind.
Have you gotten health tests like blood work and chest X-ray and ekg to rule everything out ? That’s what I had to do to make myself realize I was ok. I had shortness of breath all of the sudden and it went on for months. I made the trips to the er and many trios to my dr and found out I’m fine. I still get thoughts like something is wrong and I notice my breathing is off but I know it’s just anxiety
@Gh no I had blood test appointments lined up but I opted not to go last minute because I feel like going and doing them would be reassurance which i’m trying to avoid
I have these same issues. I'll be fine for a long time and then suddenly I'll be concerned I have ABC disease and freak out about it for weeks.
