“…All together, it seems like cancer-specific HA is a distinct phenomenon but demonstrates some overlap with anxiety, especially GAD. Associations with PTSD symptoms [43,56,207,208]; distress [56,155,209,210], depression [39,53,63,68,106,155,209,[211][212][213], and lower quality of life (QOL) are frequently reported [44,45,49,66,106,138,143]. These relationships are likely bi-directional; for example, FCR predicts future depressive symptoms [211] and previous history of depression is a predictor of FCR [41].…”

Background Patients with chronic diseases commonly report fears of illness or symptoms recurring or worsening. These fears have been addressed from an illness-specific perspective (e.g., fear of cancer recurrence), a generic illness perspective (e.g., fear of progression), and a psychiatric perspective (DSM-5 illness anxiety disorder and somatic symptom disorder). The broader concept of health anxiety (HA) can also be applied to patients with a chronic disease. This review was conducted to investigate the conceptual, theoretical, measurementoverlap, and differences between these distinct perspectives. We also aimed to summarize prevalence, course, and correlates of these fears in different chronic illnesses.
