pangxiety

Being afraid of da dentist or syringe-wielding doctor.
Thanks to modern anesthetics and ultra-sharp hypodermic needles, many routine medical procedures involve little or no pain anymore, and so there is often little need to feel much if any pangxiety.

Painxiety

When your pain is so severe that it is causing a high level of anxiety as well. Usually gets treated by pain medicine.
Waiting in the doctor’s office really gave me a bad case of painxiety, as my symptoms got worse and worse.
