It might help if you tell us a little about what you have tried so far to tackle your anxiety? There are lots of knowledgable people on here who will be able to offer words of advice.

Hi, I am exactly the same every little tummy ache or chest twinge I fear the worst and the panic starts , it makes me miserable and I know exactly how you feel, when I panic I try and think about what the doctors have told me and I repeat to myself "I am absolutely fine" , try to remember if it was anything serious pretty sure the doctors would have picked up on it, hope you feel better soon x

Pills never, ever, fix anxiety.

Have you been referred for CBT as of yet? :)
