Can't speculate: This would be something simple to confirm or exclude by available imaging techniques. Use would be proper if/when you have had a proper history & physical exam that points to the need for such studies. The cited symptoms could be triggered by other simple & treatable issues. It is time to get evaluated & quit obsessing about a potentially fatal illness.

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor and discuss if you may be depressed. Counter-intuitive as it may seem, exercise may help. Start with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity as tolerated. Wish you good health!
