A member asked:

What are some of the sure signs of cancer? i have severe anxiety issues. any useful remedies or tips? please kindly reassure.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

NO: See your doctor regularly , follow the advise , at age of 22 yrs , you should not think of cancer , especially your tests did not show any evidence for cancer. Some times you may need professional help ( psychiatric ) to take away your cancer phobia , good luck.
