I have had what I originally thought was heartburn / indigestion since Tuesday, I bought peptol bismol and the next day all was fine until the evening when the uncomfortable feeling came back.
However I now think it might be anxiety, I don't get the feeling at all at night and for the first ten minutes or so when I wake up but as soon as I wake up I start worrying whether I've got stomach cancer or not ( I'm a real hypochondriac ) and the pain starts. I've just been talking to my Mum on the phone as shes just got back from her hols and I realised that it hadn't hurt for the last ten minutes as I'd obviously relaxed and stopped thinking about it , as soon as I remember within about five minutes the pain comes back.
My husband is going up to London tomorrow and I am worried about it especially as he is going by train and although I had put it to the back of my mind I wonder if sub consciously I have worried about it . plus the thought that I may be seriously ill. Then I try and tell myself if it was something serious it wouldn't come and go like this.
I am a complete worrier , I wish I wasn't and don't know how to stop
Any advice anyone ??
