Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Anxiety is known to produce weird symptoms anywhere in the body. Anxiety is fear of something which may or may not be true or may or may not happen in the future. Anxiety related obsession brings on the negative thinking again and again and the patient feels that the problem is always there. Ignorance is the key to the treatment of obsession.

Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
