Now eye floaters! When will the worry ever end???

Uh !!  So it seem like ever since I was dx I have had one health scare after another!  First there was the lung nodule that was determined to be a granuloma. Then there was theThyroid nodule that was biopsied and came back benign. During chemo there was the tingling in my face that resolved and the tinnitus after chemo that has significantly reduced. Now I have a floater in my right eye !  I had a eye exam in Jan that was fine but now with the issue with the floater, I am having a further dialation test in 2 weeks. Of course I am still on the yearly scan schedule for the lung nodule "just to double check it" and a six month ultrasound follow up schedule for the thyroid nodule also "just in case". 

It just feels like I can never relax!!  Will I ever feel normal again?  

Anyone have any experience with eye floaters?  Of course I am going to that dark place of what if could be!!! 

Thanks!!

I had eye floaters too, and I was told that it was nothing to worry about, some people just get them and they aren't a sign of anything.  I forgot what the actual wording the eye dr used, but he told me it just happens and is not an indicator of anything bigger. I know how easy it is for our brains to go to the dark place, and I know its easier said than done, but try not to go there over everything…but listen to your body and if something doesn't feel right, investigate it!

Thanks Basia

I know that they are very common especially as you get older and also if you have myopia. I have quite bad myopia. I guess I am just tired from always being so worried about everything all the time. I will feel better once I see the eye dr again.
