So. I'm currently, and to my surprise as I feel fine*, being investigated for a Serious Thing. And while I wait for appointments for scans, of course I'm now second-guessing every tiny pain and weirdness, constantly. Fml. 🙃 *within my usual "everything hurts but it always has" parameters

Same, I had a similar things earlier this year where the results for a blood test took a whole month and the waiting period sucked immensely.

I feel you, I've been in constant never ending pain since I was 23 and at 39 I find it hard to convince my doctor that I really need a brain scan. Pretty sure something in my head is why I'm massively depressed.
