Oh, hypochondria. I have it. I know part of it is having a father who died when I was still young, and every year I get closer to his age when he died makes me just a little more crazy. This week I convinced myself I have a DVT in my leg because it seemed sore. This is after I read the article about the 20 year old gamer in England who died of a pulmonary embolism because a blood clot in his calf traveled into his lungs. Logically, I know my fears are silly, but I still spent yesterday inspecting my leg for swelling and edema every time I went to the bathroom.
