Hi
About 5 weeks ago I ended up being taken to hospital having passed out. My heart rate apparently slowed down. I was kept in and had various tests done. Although nothing significant was found, I was given further outpatients tests to help get to the bottom of it all. As a result I've been v anxious continually which has really taken its toll. I normally go running, go out at weekends and love my food. All of that has been put on hold. Was prescribed a powerful antidepressant from a walk-in clinic after a night time panic attack. My GP has taken me off them as they were making things worse. I'm still getting over the effects of that. I have 2 main fears: the final diagnosis and the thought I might not get back to being "me"!
