Hypochondriac
I have always been a little anxious throughout but post COVID i have developed severe health anxiety! 2 hrs I thought i had a golf ball kinds thing stuck in my throat, which made my throat tight and i use to swallow like 500
Times a day to get that thing down ! I did various tests, barrium swallow, camera down my throat, visited many ent's but nothing worked! Finally this left my body itslf and got some sigh of relief! Now since more than an year: I've developed a passion fot dentistry! I saw like 500 dentists for consultation, did opg's, cbct , meds etc! Beacause i have a feeling of my parotid duct opening ( papilla) to be inflamed and constantly touching my upper molars! I showd myslf to oral MaxilloFacial surgeons and they feel there is nothing wrong & iam just overthinking myself! I also have an impacted third molar which I think causes me issues but dentists feel its too deep sitted for me to get problems! Iam sick and tired of these numerous visits to doctors and wasting my money
