DH is though. It's the worst. Every day he convinces himself that he has some new disease. Sometimes it is out there, too. A few weeks ago he was convinced that he had Alzheimer's. Why? Because he forgot where he put his keys! He was obsessed with the idea of it for like 3 days afterwards. We've finally moved on from that, can't wait to see what he comes up with next. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-hypochondriac#post-388390 Fri, 09 Nov 2012 08:28:36 +0000 MamaBehr 388390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>you better believe I am! I constantly worry about DD and DS coming down with something or getting food poising. My biggest fear is barf, I hate it. So the thought of a stomach bug can make me nervous for about three days.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-hypochondriac#post-388345 Fri, 09 Nov 2012 08:02:32 +0000 heffalump 388345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes I am, sometimes I'm not. I just try to stay away from google. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-hypochondriac#post-388080 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 23:02:49 +0000 pinkcupcake 388080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unfortunately, yes :( DH has officially banned me from googling any symptoms. It's better for all of us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-hypochondriac#post-387165 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 19:49:28 +0000 sorrycharlie 387165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>not in the literal definition sense - but I definitely go overboard researching and assume I have worst case scenarios (uhh..see the cervix thread for proof). however, I usually have decent reasoning for thinking the worst! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-hypochondriac#post-387108 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 19:39:09 +0000 doodlepoodle 387108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: I'm the opposite as well but I think because I was raised by one! My dad is TERRIBLE. I told him one time "why don't you email me on the days you feel GOOD, that would be a nice change of pace!" because I swear, at least twice a week he has something going on. He's ALWAYS at the dentist, eye doctor, med doctor. "I have glaucoma" "I have an abscessed tooth" "I have a heart condition" no. He doesn't. ;) I think I always am afraid to say that anything is wrong with me because when I say I'm sick, I want people to believe me!! </p> <p>I can't relate on a personal level, but I do know what you mean! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-hypochondriac#post-386912 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 18:55:05 +0000 MrsBrewer 386912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all I'm the opposite! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-hypochondriac#post-386908 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 18:54:10 +0000 banana 386908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a major hypochondriac! Dr. Google is my worst enemy cause I'm always convinced I have something wrong with me. I'm even worse when it comes to my kids. My son had black poop once when he was little (it was super dark and black) and I called the on-call pediatrician in the middle of the night in a frantic state because I thought his stomach was bleeding! It ended up just being old poop. =\ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-hypochondriac#post-386888 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 18:47:50 +0000 MamaMoose 386888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a total hypochondriac and I hate it about myself. It creates so much stress in my life. And it's been 1000x worse in pregnancy. Right now I have terrible indigestion and I've convinced myself that my throat is going to close and I'm going to die. Logically I know this is crazy but I can't stop freaking out!!!</p> <p>Are you a hypochondriac like me?!? Tell me your crazy fears! </p>
