Hi

I have cancer and my blood tests came back clear.  But my throat was visibly cancerous so the blood tests were neither here nor there really.

Remember doctors are only human.   The stress and obvious anxiety you are going through is no good for your health.  Even for piece of mind I would make an appointment at your doctor,  but maybe ask to see a different doctor.   Ask your doctor to refer you to ENT.  Hopefully they will agree.  Do keep in mind that covid may mean a bit of a wait, this is simply to protect us all.

Hope you find answers.

You're welcome 

Your stress and anxiety can cause headaches, tiredness and wait loss.  It also lowers your immune system which can make you feel rubbish.

Be honest with the doctor and tell them about how you are feeling mentally and physically.  They do what they do because they want to help.  You will get the odd one that's an idiot, but you'll get that in any walk of life. 

Good luck and try and stay positive. 

Hi MartM,

You need to take a step back and look dispassionately at the facts.

Cancer is rare in anyone under the age of 60. Not unknown, but rare.

Anxiety and depression are very common in your age range. Health anxiety is very real and causes physical symptoms similar or even identical  to those you have described. 

By all means arrange to see another GP, but please try to keep an open mind about the possibility that your symptoms might indicate health anxiety.

Good luck

Dave
