Glad to hear that: your tests indicate that all is well. Sounds like you are dealing w/a somatform disorder--when our emotional concerns manifest themselves in bodily symptoms. Please try to find a mental health professional for treatment, not just medication. If you have a spiritual belief system, a prudent spiritual leader may also provide perspective. Peace and good health.
