I'm not going to get into the particulars of what's actually happening with this, but OCD can and will create psychosomatic obsessions.

You can have legitimately-feeling physical pain that's in actuality completely fake and made up in your head. It can happen. It's happened to me.

Unfortunately, we are not equipped to self-diagnose when we have medical issues. Refer to the opinions of medical professionals, and to the opinions of your trusted friends & family (IF they understand that you have OCD).

Do you have cancer? Do you have ALS? Do you have diabetes? You probably cannot figure it out on your own, and I discourage you even trying until you get a trusted outside opinion. OCD makes that process too hard.

I want to donate to a British twitch gaming streamer (nothing problematic about him at all), but am wondering if it's a reportable event. It feels like a silly question but I am not sure.
