Health anxiety

Hello doctors, for the longest time, I've had health anxiety- like around 2-3 years. It's particularly bad about cancer as I always fear having it. My fear of cancer was formed when my friend's grandfather died of cancer and one of my favorite YouTubers died of cancer as well. Im especially scared of breast cancer and it's so bad that I cant even wash my chest without feeling scared of touching a lump. I did consult a doctor for a physical check up this year and she said I have no lumps and Im all clear, but the fear still persists. Googling symptoms makes it worse. Please advise what to do

Dryness in mouth

I am male 27 years old. About 4 weeks ago I had dryness in mouth for few hours. After that 5 days it was completely normal. After those 5 days I am having constant dryness in my mouth. I drink 2-3 litres everyday since this symptom. All my blood reports like diabetes and thyroid are normal. I took appointment with 2 general physician and 1 ENT. All they told me that it is related to stress and ignore it. But it is difficult to ignore. I get more anxious about it. I google everytime and get frustrated when dryness does not go away. I am only taking vitamin d3 and b medications. Is this quite common that dryness of mouth to constant stress?
