I'm Such A Hypochondriac

For those of you who don't know, just so you don't have to google it, a hypochondriac is someone who will easily convince themselves that they're sick, going so far as to convince themselves they have symptoms of diseases. And with me, it's like every now and then when I get worried about something. Like for a couple weeks I use to think I may have had a tapeworm, which I didn't. But now I got a serious one. Tapeworms won't kill you, I think. I heard Lyme Disease can. And I've really been wondering around in the woods a lot and gotten quite a number of ticks. Now I normally check myself every 10 minutes when I'm out there, but I was carrying a lot of stuff on my back so I never checked my gut. So like 7 or 8 hours after wandering in the woods I scratch my belly and find out I got a giant tick there. And I looked up symptoms of Lyme Disease. I have had lots of joint pain, especially in my knuckles. I've been feeling tired as shit. The spot where the tick was is round and red. And I have had quite a few headaches. There's also a whole lot of looseness in my face I feel a lot, along with tingling in hands. God I hope it's just hypochondria.
