Hi Guys
have posted about this before but just putting this out there again..
seeing an EXTREMELY large number of people posting on this forum 'convinced' they may have cancer, and listing every possible symptom Dr. Google has to offer and asking for advice.
Firstly, it's extremely concerning that for some of these posters, the first thing you would think to do is set up a profile on a cancer forum and ask for advice. Of all the illnesses in the world, why is cancer your first thought?
if you ask Google, it will tell you that a common cold can, in some circumstances be a warning sign of cancer. A COLD.
I appreciate that health anxiety is stressful, but I can assure you actually having been diagnosed with cancer is a lot more stressful... please don't use up too much of your energy googling things before you know the facts.
speak with your GP, speak with the hospital. Trust the professionals..Diagnosing illnesses is their job, not yours.
