Convincing myself I've got lung cancer

[felttippens]

Have a lump on my back that I got checked by doctor but it was so quick not even sure she felt it
I keep getting a nagging pain in shoulder blade and starting to imagine its a tumour
Is this health anxiety? I'm on citlopram

Hi treadingwater123. I'm not sure if I sincerely hope that this may be health anxiety, as a h.a sufferer it is sometimes all consuming and debilitating...I've had several dreadful 'bouts' since my kids were born. I am not medically trained in anyway, however - you have done the right thing, you've visited the doc, the nagging pain in your shoulder may be psychosomatic because your mind is drawn to this area....could be so many things...maybe a health diary might help - but only of actual symptoms - that way you can know if there is any change...my doc always said that I should and could go and see them anytime - nothing would be dismissed out of hand....i hope you find some calm take care x

It could be , I too was on citalopram but was very silly and didnt go back for anothe prescription as it was just making me totally emotionless . I feel my HA coming back and depression kicking in. I was obsessed I had breast cancer went to have ultra sound scan all clear. I'm still convinced they missed it . It's shit it really is :(
