Can anyone relate?

I was wondering if anyone could relate or give me assurance.  I have had health anxiety for about 4 years now.  I'm a 31 year old female, married and have been with my husband for 6 years.  It's got to be pretty bad and I'm sure I'm driving my husband crazy!  I get a physical every year, blood is drawn, I go to the dentist twice a year, get my eyes checked every year and go to my gyno for my annual every year.  I always get great results from the doctor but I always feel they are missing something.  I get this weird symptoms that freak me out and when I go to the dr they tell me that it's "nothing to worry about!" but it just doesn't put my mind at ease.  And now I think I'm pretty sure I'm pregnant which is amazing and wonderful but I just have these doubts in the back of my head.  Does anyone have any advice for me?

Thank you so much for responding!  I agree with you 100%!  I just never feel like I'm getting the answers that I need.  Ohhh then annoyance!!

First, congratulations on being pregnant, that is awesome.
Second, it is great all your tests are great.
Third, try not to worry, easier said than done, I know, but, for me, the more I worry, the worst all my anxiety symptoms become. I, too, usually feel like the doctor has missed something, it is just another form of anxiety, he more than likely has not missed  a thing.

I think a lot of doctors just are not caring enough in their answers and if they would really take the time to talk to their patients, explain things and even give a physical touch of reassurance, it would help so much and I think we would believe what they say more as well. I know I sure would.
