Hi All

[buzby67]

Hi iv been suffering from ids and health anxiety for years now, and i am yet again suffering again. I find myself getting depper and depper in, this all started about 3 mounths ago i could not stop peeing i went to the doctors she did a water test and said that i had a water infection, she gave me some meds for this which took the water infection away. But not for me, i convinced myself that i had a bladder or prostrate cancer. I have seen my docter 5 times for this now she has examined me and did another water test all clear, but still i am stressed. now my ibs has started, im not sleeping and feel crap and i am looking for every symptom all the time, it is taking over my life, i keep telling myself its ok but not working, when i get strest it gets worse pain when i need to pee ibs pains. my doctor said it is a iritable bladder. the more i panic the worse it gets, im going around and around.

Hi Gary,

Welcome to the site. Good to have you on board.

Bladder problems are common with anxiety and they make you feel dreadful. I've been round the block with this a few times myself but in the end there was nothing wrong, it was all brought on by stress and anxiety. Hard I know, but try to believe that it will get better as your anxiety lessens. Are you having any treatment for the anxiety?

Hi EebyJeeby
thanks for replying
im taking venlafaxing been on them for about 3 weeks now, was taking the before and was working ok, but not at the moment. all i can think about is the pain when i need to pee its so real in my head, iv started to take vitamin B-Complex which is for stress and to build your immune system which turns your pee bright iluminus yellow i was told this but still im stressed about this when its dark more stress. i seem to think about it 24/7 cant get it out of my head, and the worse thing is my family is going through it again.

Welcome along Gary,

You are not alone in how you feel and we understand you.

Keep reading this site, and in time that will give you a greater understanding, and maybe go some way to impressing on your mind that its just anxiety and nothing more threatening.

Hard, I know.
