  • Hello and thanks for posting,

    We have noticed that you have posted several times already with concerns over different symptoms. It does seem that you are very anxious about your health generally.

    This forum isn't really meant for people with concerns about symptoms, as we can only suggest that people speak with their GP about it. We cannot diagnose, or suggest what the matter is. 

    Health anxiety can get out of control, and start to occupy one's thoughts a lot of the time. So, as your GP is not concerned following your last consultation, try and not over focus on things.

    The NHS has some information here,

    www.nhs.uk/.../

    Do talk this over with your GP, and see if they can suggest help, as we are not the most appropriate source to assist you with this.

    Wishing you the best,

    Vanda
