I hate myself..

Me again. I'm pretty sure you all will get tired of me 😔 ugh so guess what I think I have now.... Thyroid cancer. Here I am, on my way to Florida with my son, boyfriend, and family and I can't enjoy anything for the life of me. I was fine and then I started thinking, and then I started feeling crap. And my mind was just running and running.. Anyways, here it goes.. Last year when I was pregnant and I did my blood test, they called me back saying to come in for a second test because my thyroid seemed abnormal I guess ? So yeah I went, took the second test and a few days later I called an they said everything looked fine. I had terrible anxiety throughout my pregnancy but like I said before, every appt I went to, I seemed fine to my ob. Then I had my son at 35 weeks. Could they have been wrong about my thyroid? Could that be why I had him 5 weeks early? Well, as I was sitting here in the car, that's all I could think of. Then my neck started aching. And I started thinking more! And to make matters worse, for the past month or two, when I swallow, sometimes I feel something pop like in my throat. Like literally feels like a bone or something popping. It doesn't hurt and i have no difficulty swallowing. It's just very annoying and frustrating because of course, my mind starts to run when I feel it and I automatically think I have cancer in my throat or something. UGH!!!! I'm a mess :( why can't I just be happy like everyone else?! This is my first trip to Florida and my excitement has gone and now this is all I can think about. And my boyfriends getting frustrated with me because my attitude changed out of no where because of this. I think I'm definitely going to find me a doctor when we get back from this trip. Till then, help me get through this guys 😞

My brother had thyroid issues and he had the bulging eyes etc. If your doctor said your fine then stop worrying, if you have no large thyroid in your neck stop worrying. My gyno also told me my pregnancy was fine and at 7 months I bleed so bad I and baby almost died. Please try to relax and remember energy goes where energy flows.
