I have always suffered health anxiety and now my worst fears are coming true. I saw the GP yesterday as I have a dull ache in my tummy and have been burping a lot. She asked me if food is getting stuck and I said yes although it's not something that happens particularly often. She also a feel of my tummy. She's referred me for a scan and to a consultant to take a look. I'm particularly terrified as the appointments have already come through and it seems to be a rush. So terrified it's cancer and GP must be thinking that too. I can't function today - just lying on the sofa unable to think of anything else. I can't eat now with anxiety.
