Oh, no...I didn't mean to imply that. I just meant that the symptoms and an office assessment led my doctor to want to eliminate anything amiss such as a tumor, or bleeding issues from my car accident that went unnoticed in the ordinary x-ray I was given after that accident.
So I think...ok, no brain tumor. When women (well, when I) keep pushing for a diagnosis I wonder if I'm not a complete hypochondriac. I don't want to be that person. And yes, I worry that the doc is thinking I'm a hypochondriac. Yet, as was pointed out, many women just feel something is wrong. But, out of a myriad of possibilities, what exactly?
I was pushing for perimenopause and all I got was lousy anxiety.
