Broken heart syndrome?

I think I have it, but ive been avoiding going to the doctor.

Ever since my husband passed away, my heart has felt achey. Like a very light tugging sensation. I notice when I think of him is when it’s worse.

It’s been a year since he passed. If I go to the doctor how would I even mention it without sounding like a hypochondriac?

I feel dumb because it’s been a year feeling like this. Like I’ve waited too long.

I’m also scared they’re going to say it’s anxiety. I’m pretty sure it’s not. I’ve had anxiety all my life and this is different.
