Take The Pressure Down...Or Not I am most assuredly a hypochondriac. I see ads describing symptoms of diseases and ailments and I instantly assume that I have them. But I don�t like to bother my doctor with such things. So I�ll sit at home worried that I�ll die from prostate* cancer but won�t do a darn thing to get it checked out. On the weekend I decided I really should go to the doctor and get a few things checked out. Ever since that 60 minutes report on a 16 year old with melanomas I have worried about skin cancer. My friends will scoff at this as my worship of the sun is akin to a cat�s love of water...it just doesn�t happen. But as I have a fair few moles I thought I should get them checked out. Nothing wrong, everything�s fine but he did discover that I have low blood pressure. Now this confuses me as I thought I was a highly stressed individual. I freak out over things all the time � I am a bundle of nerves for no reason! My blood pressure should be sky high. Unless of course the stress is channelling itself into some other avenue. A stomach ulcer perhaps? Now that I think about it my stomach has been a bit off lately� Tyd *Yes I know I don�t have a prostate, hence the irony. 7 March 2005 - 10:01 am |
