A member asked:
How do i cure health anxiety? i am obsessed with tonsil cancer. seen ent and he wasn't concerned. since then ear pain on same side as enlarged tonsil?

Anxiety treatment: Seeking treatment with a psychotherapist would be a great start. Evaluation of the underlying issues that have you obsessed with your tonsils despite reassurance from your physician may be tremendously helpful. Additionally, Xanax (alprazolam) may not be the appropriate drug for you.
