I've suffered with HA for around 8 years now and I go through moments of not suffering with it, to moments of doom and despair.
I had the Meriva coil put in in Feb and fainted from the procedure due to anxiety and had my check up 6 weeks later. The nurse said she couldn't find the strings so I've an appointment on Monday for a scan. Since then my mind is consumed with it all. I think I may have IBS but my fear is that it is ovarian or such like. My symptoms are bloated, lower back ache and virtually constant abdominal pain, not like a a distinct period pain but just ache and uncomfortable. I'm basically worrying myself sick about it and can think of nothing else. I went back to my GP on Monday who reckons its IBS and prescribed tablets which don't appear to make much difference. She said after I'd spoken of my health anxiety that there is little she can do as it seems the ailments are relating to me working myself up to the scan, the fear of what they may find. I'm terrified
