WHOA I am so happy so many responses guys. Really awesome and comforting for me.

In related news I am not sure if I am about to be more anxious than ever, or if im just doing really well. Fatigue/nightly stomach pain sent me to the doctor who did bloodwork and said Gastritis with a possible ulcer. Blood work comes back and I am now 22, with an ulcer, slightly high cholesterol, and my new obsession, very elevated liver enzymes. Scheduled with a GI doc on the 31st. I also lost 13lbs in a month while eating fatty food without exercise. The Anemia causing fatigue is really the worst part by far.

So now im convinced that i have liver damage to due my good ole cymbalta, liver cancer, or have something wrong with my ability to absorb b12 just like I have a problem absorbing vitamin D. 2 of those 3 are of course bad news and 1 is just another ****** aspect of my body but nothing big. Guess which my mind thinks is worth thinking about the most? CANCER OF COURSE! DEAD BY NEW YEARS RIGHT!? Now the really weird part, no panic associated...

Obsessive? sure. Contributing every thing I feel to my new unproven Liver Cancer? OBVIOUSLY! But...im not too scared...Dont know why. Take just now for instance, in a hotel for the night. Go into the bathroom and it has really bright yellow lights. My eyes are bloodshot and look yellowish in the mirror. 2 options: im tired and the bright yellow lights are bright and yellow..or im jaundiced from liver failure and need emergency help. Well im not panicking and instead im going to watch Fight Club on my laptop and go to bed. Now its not that i believe the yellow lights are causing the yellow eyes, i just dont seem to care lol. Dunno, maybe my subconscious is taking the road of "worrying isnt a treatment for liver disease", which would be nice. Either that or the cancer is effecting my nervous system and as a byproduct reducing anxiety. Haha what a wild ride life is.

To get off obsessing over myself for a second, I still check this posting I made and am so glad so many have responded . Some of these are so similar to me and some are so different but we all can identify them. Keep em coming friends!
