spin the wheel

[ooph]

That's right.  I am spinning the old diagnosis wheel at ooph again.

I do this thing where I diagnose myself with a disease about, oh, EVERY TEN MINUTES.  If I feel the slightest amount of pain in my head, I go straight to visions of me in the hospital and my family standing around my bed and saying, "We told her that cheap red wine was going to cause her brain to swell.  If only she had bought the more expensive wine, she wouldn’t be in a coma fighting for her life." If an age spot shows up on the bridge of my nose, I go straight to fighting for my life, because of course it has to be cancer.  It couldn’t possibly be that I am getting old and it is nothing more than an age spot.  OH NO.  It is cancer for sure and I probably won’t even make it to my chemo appointment, because I just felt a weird spasm in my left arm and I just know I am going to have a heart attack in a matter of minutes.  Dear GOD, as I am typing this, I accidentally spelled the word minutes with two n’s so clearly dementia is setting in and I have no idea if I will even get through this post. What was I saying?

 I truly love it! Honestly I am such a hypochondriac that just last week I went to the doctors because I had something on my tongue, which my mom told me it was just a canker sore, but no I refused to listen to her answer, and thought I had tongue cancer... well of course it was just a canker sore!! LOL! Glad you wrote this, made me chuckle a bit =)

I am trying to make a diagnosis too. I think I either have a stomach tumor or possibly an alien fetus growing inside...or possibly the side effects from eating six kids' candy stash from the Halloween weekend? How long do you think I have? Be honest, I think I can take it...hey, is that  Milky Way bar I see?
