My 14 yr old GD has suddenly become all consumed with her health. She has endometriosis, so has a lot of pain each month. The docs put her on the pill for 3 months and consequently has been painfree but now she has stopped taking that under docs orders. She is now terrified that the pain will return. She now has painful shoulders and pains in her chest, all of which I think is tension. She has been sick a few times and just generally feels very down . Her parents have taken her to a private hospital and gad her checked out. All seems fine.
I try to reassure the family that it’s a funny age, no school, pandemic. She is a bright, popular girl with lots of friends but of course can’t be with them at the moment.
Her mum had breast cancer 2 years ago and is now clear, but she remains anxious about her health and I think this has rubbed off on her daughter. All this adds up to worry and stress.
I have suggested meditation, breathing excercise etc but don’t know what else to say
