See answer: Bubbles in urine may not indicate anything important. Sometimes it may indicated excess protein in the urine(proteinuria). If you are concerned have your physician do a dipstick test for protein in the urine. The test may be available OTC. For health anxiety CBT(cognitive behavioral therapy)can be very helpful. For free online CBT see My checklist" overcoming anxiety and stress".

HEALTH WORRIES: Nothing that you have said makes me overly concerned about any acute or emergent medical issues. You should discuss this anxiety with your parents and with your doctor. I think that both sources can help greatly in reducing your anxiety.
