admit defeat I am off to the drs at 11am after breaking down in tears last night & this morning to my husband. I spoke to a nurse at my surgery who said I best come in. I know I went a few weeks ago but didn't take what he gavem e but it was because he prescribed Trazadone which is mainly prescribed for insomnia (which isn't me at all) and I didn't want to doped up all day, he also only said to take 2.5ml at night???? thats totally useless.
Recently my heaolth anxiety has gone through the roof again, particuly (sp) about my sinuses and the risk of meningitis. The last 2 days all ive done is freak out that im developing meningtis because ive a headache, cold hands & feet, slight temp and sinus pain
My mum is coming with me to the drs but im not sure if id look daft having her in the room with me (I am 27 next week) or just ask her to sit in the waiting room as thats still a support. Its not my usual dr but it is the GP who diagnosed me with chronic sinusitis so he knows I was worrying about meningitis anyway and he has been our family dr since I was born so he knows my mum very well.
I know for sure he is going to put me on anti ds, I am just so scared about the side effects after that reaction I had to cypralex its made me terrified of trying anything new, I freak out about low sodium risk, seizures etc...... I worry I won't ever be able to come off them, was I ever better on them anyway????
Arghhhhhhh im so mixed up. I am going to talk about the anxiety/depression (dh thinks its just anxiety causing me to feel low at times) then I shall mention my sinuses as they are very painful the last few days and now I have abit of a temp which is making me worry
I feel sooooooooooo stupid admiting these feelings but any advice id appreciate, im seeing my GP at 11am.
