@MissCeltic you know, I am undoubtedly a lot older than you. I'll let you into a little secret. By my age, the amount of odd little aches and pains one gets, you'd be forgiven to think you were on your way out, at times. I do feel for your generation though - you are bombarded with health (or sickness/lump/cancer) info everywhere you look, and it must be hard not to think that every little ailment is going to lead to cancer. For the most part, they don't, but you could probably find a symptom of cancer in every little thing you look up, if you wanted to, and without medical knowledge, you are likely sending yourself nuts with worry. I was diagnosed with GAD (general anxiety disorder) in my 20's, (not health related) and I live every day, hour, minute, with anxiety symptoms, eg, feeling like there is too much adrenaline in my body from the minute I wake up. No medication has really worked for me, and believe me I've tried many. The one that does, is on a restricted list and GP's are very reluctant to prescribe it as it's addictive. I know lots of people like me with regards to anxiety, and most of the semi educated in the world are probably in this state because, as they used to say, 'a little knowledge is a dangerous thing'. We have a tiny symptom, and that leads us down a rabbit hole of research, all of which is usually no comfort, as almost everything leads to cancer. It's a cliché, but exercise does help me. Lifting weights, stretching, Pilates and Yoga are all good. Outdoor swimming is amazing for mental health. The cold water is like an instant happiness hit. I also walk my dogs twice a day and that also helps - but not if they are misbehaving! I wish you peace and good health in the years ahead. X
