I never used to be so anal about my physical health. But for the past 2 years it's gotten bad. Every pain or odd feeling I feel = death. Oh you have pain in your right side? Must be appendicitis. Headache? Oh just a tumour. I've been having pain in my side, around where one's liver is and I'm convinced it's either liver damage or gallstones. Even after going to the doctor and having tests done that prove I am perfectly healthy I am still convinced I have something. I don't know if it's just me or do other BPD folks also tend to be a hypochondriac.
