Aaaargh!!! I'm so fed up with health anxiety!!!!
Okay, so I know my ticker is fine and dandy and I'm doing my level best to move forward with this info. I'm having bad stomach problems (which I'm not panicking about YAY!) and I've pretty much been ill since Christmas - which I'm also not panicking about so I think I'm making really, really good progress.... then I get stabbing pains in my calf and I instantly think blood clot!!! Arrrgh!!!
So I've figured out my HA is really only related to things that could kill me instantly like heart problems and clots etc...
I feel totally p***ed off about this.
I mean, I'm rational and smart - I know this is all bloody ridiculous and I am fine but still the doubts are there. I. Have. Had. Enough.
Does anybody genuinely get better and stay better?!? I mean, I see so many posts (including 1 from me) from people who thought they had it licked but then end up at square one again. I cannot even begin to think about having this worry all of my life. It's hard enough having lived with it for so many years. So much time wasted about worrying about sweet FA.
Sorry about the rant. I'm thoroughly, thoroughly fed up.:wall:
