I’m 8 weeks postpartum and I’ve got terrible anxiety about my health. I’ve convinced myself that I’ve got ALS or Motor Neurone disease! My knees have been cracking and when I walk upstairs I’ll occasionally get a sharp pain that will require me to shift my weight quickly to my other leg. I have also had occasional twitching in various body parts. I’ve seen a doctor and he said he thinks it’s mechanical but I’ve not been able to stop worrying. I have suffered from health anxiety for as long as I can remember but I’m out of control with worry at the moment. Did anyone else get this postpartum?
