Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.
Based on the description, I feel that you are suffering from HYPOCHONDRIA which means that you become obsessed with the idea that you have a serious disease that hasn't been diagnosed yet.
Treatment for this condition include Psychological coucelling in the form of Cognitive behavioural therapy, Educating about Hypochondria and a few medicines like Fluoxetine may help.
I suggest you to consult a Psychologist for further management.
Hope this information is helpful. Good day
