Becoming really scared

Hi,

 

I am 25 years old and I am male, I've recently been developing tiny red spots on both my arms, I don't have many but a few, they disappear when I touch them and come back, I'm scared I have leukaemia and feeling really anxious, my anxiety gets the better of me most of the time, I did have a blood test quite recently which came back negative, am I just being paranoid, it's just really scaring me!

  • Thank you for posting caminator16.  I see from your post that you are worried about some symptoms you have.  The best thing to do is to go and see your doctor about these problems, if you haven't already.  When you are worried that you may have cancer, it can be tempting to look for answers online, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better.  And the only person that can diagnose you is your doctor. There is some information here on how to get the best out of an appointment.  

    I hope this is helpful,
