Your doctor needs to remember that even hypocondriacs get sick! It's his job to know the difference. As Rich said earlier, it is not without reason that you have concerns. It is probably true for most of us that things we might have dismissed in the past seem more ominous now even though they might prove to be benign. We still want them investigated.
