Dr. Lori Lange answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Mental health: Some people have fear, anxiety and recurrence thoughts about themselves. The brain and mental health issues are closely connected. Seeing a physician and possibly getting an A OK will help to reassure you that there is nothing to worry about. See a doctor and get a work up, labs and possible treatment if needed.
