Hi all,

I cancelled my op for my eyes and know I did the right thing! However I woke up so anxious and on way to work said I would pick up some boxes of music magazines for the college I work at.

They were not massive boxes but quite heavy. I have now had a panic attack and could hardly breath as started thinking about hernias. I have already had 2 in the groin repaired but after cancelling the op I managed to chill a bit and now I fear that by lifting them I have made a hernia? There were 6 boxes and I carried 3 to my car. On arrival tot he college I brought 3 in as well. They were heavy but not to the point that I could hardly lift them. Someone else lifted the other 3. Altogether I must have done about 2 minutes max of lifting. I am now in tears and just want to go home. People lift heavy stuff all the time but I am so paranoid as have had 2 before.
