Hi everyone,
I've been having some anxious moments of late due to stressors at work and general things that make us all anxious.
I take cit for my anxiety and depression and have Xanax on standby but I don't use them hardly at all..... Maybe I should more in cases of panic?
I have had numerous ECGs over the years by my GP, blood tests etc, and 8 months ago went to A&E re chest pains. I had a stress test etc , bloods and a chest xray which showed I had a perfectly healthy heart.
I still think there is something wrong or missed etc as we do and lately I've been worrying myself sick... I went to the doctor last night and said maybe I should go get a ultra sound and he was like you don't need it, your stress test was fine etc, he checked my blood pressure and it was like 170/80 then he waited a few minutes and it was 145/80 which he said was fine and because I was a little stressed etc he said its natural for me to vary like that....
When i did my stress test my BP at the end of it was 135/60 etc which is good I was assured.
Sometimes i just want to go the the A&E and get wired up again and reassured over and over again.... I'm seeing a counsellor at the moment which is helping and have been referred to a pshc for a assessment etc.
Currently laying in bed not wanting to get up and face the day!!!!
Any advice would be great.
Thanks
