Hi All
I'm back again with this health anxiety 😔
Over the past few months I have decided I don't want to live like this anymore trouble is my anxiety sees this as a challenge and steps up a gear 😔 I have so many different issues that come and go and my brain seems to home in on one and of course everything else I feel ties in with it some way or another making it all worse
I have chronic nerve pain for which I am on amitriptaline 20mcg a night before bed I also take a Colofac for ibs at night and a ibuprofen to try and give the muscles around my upper back shoulder and neck a rest my hands tingle a lot as they are now always seems to be worse in the morning I am hoping it is because my muscles have had a good rest and starting to use them again sets this tingling off
I have become more aware of the tingling I honestly don't know if it is happening more or if my brain has homed in on it the muscles around my upper back from the middle of my back upwards to my jaw are always very tense my upper arms ache when I hang washing out fold washing anything like that I have felt it before usually the day after I have been work because I work till 9.30pm and I have fibromyalgia I certainly feel it the next day
Because my HA is focused on my heart the upper arm ache scares me makes me think my heart is struggling and sets me off on a vicious circle of aching because I'm worried and worrying because I ache 😔
I have a telephone assessment with a psychologist on 24th of this month I asked my doctor to refer me for some proper councilling in the hope that I can suppress this beast and at least learn to live with it
Should I be worried about my arms? If my husband puts deep heat on me I feel better but not for long I have work later today and I don't want to get myself in a state
I am also having problems falling asleep sometimes I feel like I am going to forget to breath and my eyes open and I take a big breath then I get that awful stomach drop feeling you get when you recieve bad news it happens a couple of times before I fall asleep my heart isn't racing or anything when it happens just that split second of omg did I breath really scares me anyone had this
Thanks guys
