Since I got ill, I worry about every single pain, bump, rash or anything in my body. Since the holidays, I developed a rash above my left breast. I also get terrible headaches. The area around my right arm/armpit is also bugging me. My breasts also feel different. So I went to see Dr. C.
Dr. C said the rash is eczema or dry skin. I have no lymphedema. The breast were normal. The headaches may be related to stress. I explained to her that since the cancer scare, I hold my breath whenever I check my breasts. Scared $h!t of any lumps or bumps I feel and terrified of any new stuff that I feel or see on my body. I became paranoid. Know what she said I worry TOO much. Ya think so?!?!?
Dr. C said I should stop worrying and enjoy life. She said I won the battle by beating the disease and it is now time for me to enjoy my life, be happy.
Stop worrying about my health? After what I've been to? That's easier said than done.
I'm trying my best to stay positive, for the most part I try to but quite honestly, it's hard especially when it is accompanied by stress.
