Sudden death issues like heart attacks and aneurysms. My anxiety stems from me worrying about not calling an ambulance in time and dying... leaving my toddler alone to fend for herself until someone finds hrr.
I think that's a lot of my problem with anxiety about heart health as well, that it may be sudden or I may not recognize it in time to call for help. I understand exactly what you mean!

Cancer, blood clots, heart attack. Pretty much anything on different days.

For me it's heart attack/heart problems, aneurysms, clots, diabetes, kidney problems, and anaphylactic reactions.
Or generally just the fear of having something severely wrong with me and needing emergency medical attention and knowing the terror that that must bring.

Some days are better than others. My heart goes out to everyone on this forum, every day can seem like a living hell in the throes of health anxiety. We can do it though!
Found any success in dealing with aneurysm fears? Currently in a loop worried about aortic dissection. Been a month and I can't seem to get out of it
