He also mentioned that I should take Omega 3 and 6 and Vitamin B but hasn't put me on these yet.
I'm really happy to take vitamins as I don't like all these drugs the other doctors hand out like smarties.
I do believe that ones body can heal itself if it's nourished correctly. And I also believe that the mind plays a big part.
You describe exactly how I feel in not being able to separate anxiety symptoms from other illness. But when I'm feeling "normal" I can rationalise with myself. That if it's something serious then I won't be able to continue in my normal routine. There'll be pain or fever or something that'll tell me 'this is serious'. While my mind is telling me that I'm ill I continue to push on physically and this is a test to see if I am in fact ill or not. But it's HARD!
I often worry that I put everything down to anxiety and what if I'm missing something that does actually need medical attention?
When you say that you often feel ill but can't really put your finger on what's exactly wrong? That's just how I feel - most of the time and for many years. I was happy when the doctor explained what this is caused from. At least I know I'm not imagining it. And now I know it what is causing it I can fix it.
I hope you can too.
