One of the ways my anxiety manifests itself is to constantly worry about my health. If I get the flu, I'm convinced I'm dying. If I have a cough I just know it's lung cancer. You get the idea. I'm constantly about to die and yet, I'm still here.

Anxiety is the worrying disease and it sounds to me like you have it. I'd see a therapist and a psychiatrist. Meds can help a lot as can the techniques they teach in therapy.

Good luck to you.
