I like the term scanxiety even if we are not having an actual scan. It's that feeling we know oh so well every time we have a significant test. You are not a hypochondriac in my book. It's a rational fear for anyone who has had cancer.

Maybe I could add the term torchaphobia to describe that fearful moment when the ENT doctor shines the torch in your mouth.You can almost hear the cogs in their brain working:)
