Hi I'm Back and had a good week

[brenda]

Hi All
Well I've had some success. I went on holiday to kent to see my daughter. A 3 hour train journey.
I was a bit panicky on the first train going with palpitations all the way but by the time I got on the second one I was oK.
Well while I was away I was ill. I get bad headaches/migraines and had one and couldnt travel home.
Got a bit panicky cause I didnt know where we would be able to stay but as luck would have it the B and B had the room vacant for a few more days.
So we had 2 extra days and I was oK. What i dreaded wasnt so bad at all. I could rest in bed the same as at home so I dont think I will be so worried about it next time.

The Journey home was OK too a lot better than last time.
Now am planning another 3 hour trip to see relatives in a couple of weeks.
I tried to just let the symptoms come and not worry about them and it worked after a while but it was hard to do.
Not as easy as it seems when reading the books etc but it does work if you keep at it.
I'm trying to keep going out and will let you know how it goes.
Hope you all are having a better week
Hugs
Pam

Hi Pam,

Glad it all went well for you, well done!

Lynn, my sis and bro in law live in Scotland together with my 7 year old niece and nephew and I still haven't plucked up the courage to go and visit them. The rest of the family all fly up there, takes no time at all, but there is no way I would get on a plane. Oh well, maybe one day.

Hi Pam,

So happy for you. I get migraines too and know how bad they can be, but so happy you won't let it keep you from future trips. You are so very brave in winning this battle. Well done.

Pam well done mate.

It really helps me to hear how people cope with feeling rough while away so I am so glad you posted that bit.

It also helps us all to know that we dont all find it easy. sometimes it can feel everybody else is doing it ok so why cant we. I do like hearing about the downs aswell as the ups if you know what I mean.

Well done again - massive!!

Thanks all for your encouragement.
I am still feeling good after the trip.

The anxiety hasnt gone away but it is less than it was.
I just have to keep at it.

I'm finding since I've got back I am feeling more positive which is helping me with other things. Before I went i was depressed because I couldnt do things but I seem to have a new lease of life now.
I spring cleaned the fridge today which is amazing LOL

Hope you are all well and keep trying. YOu will get there in the end

Hugs
