many people anti-medication globally for variety of reasons. In your case medication needed to contain adverse impact on long term prognosis
Try relaxing breathing exercises , distract yourself with activity, avoid googling symptoms. Delay your reassurance seeking. If worries keep coming daily or interfere with life, consult a psychiatrist.

It’s great that you’ve learnt to manage your social anxiety by regularly exposing yourself to it and facing your fears but since it has recurred, I think you need to take a proper course of medication to cure it and meanwhile obviously you will have pair it with non-medication strategies like relaxation exercises for optimum effectiveness.
What you did for social anxiety was CBT for it, you can do same for health anxiety as well, if you need help further CBT via ai might help and if still stuck you can book a consultation and I or any other psychologist can guide you as well, good luck ? you can overcome it.
