Believe the doctor

[anx mum]

As many of u know been getting horrible pains in my chest following a cough been so scared cos pains have been in my arms too had an ecg thurs was ok. Felt terrible sat so went bk to walk in clinic the doc said my lungs and heart r fine find believing the doc so hard maybe its cos my mum was misdiagnoised.

hi hun totally understand on three occasions with 3 different drs they mis diagnosed and this is why i have problems believing what they say they were serious problems and i lost my dad because of this but i know i have to move on and try to believe them but it is very hard too
i tryed a beta blocker today and the chest pains did decrease slightly but i can feel them creeping back the beta blocker is probably wearing of now, have the drs suggest you try them ?? hey might be worth a go

[anx mum]

what beta blocker is it? Im on propanel

[angel wings]

[anx mum]

All the local GPs here are quite good (probably very good I would say) about physical problems, but anything to do with mental health they are completely useless.

[anx mum]
