Momentary Hypochondria

Ok, so never ever look up any real or imagined physical symptoms on the computer unless you have an absolute diagnosis for whatever symptom you are worried about because your benign or non-existent malady may turn into an absolute fear of some deadly disease that no doctor has the cure
for, or worse, which may require extreme life saving measures, possibly putting you into a deep depression over a rare illness that frankly, was eradicated in the late eighteenth century.

You may breathe now! 

So for brevity's sake, which clearly is not my forte, let me get to the point. 

By the time I returned to the lab for my second go-around of tests, I had talked myself into feeling pretty ill and thought I might have to lay down before they even called my name (which would have been very embarrassing to be sprawled out on the waiting room floor for no good reason) but, I thought better of it and decided that I could tough it out and hope for the best. 

Which turned out to be a very good thing since it turns out that I will live, and my electrolytes are quite fine, thank you very much!
