Hi everyone...
I feel kind of guilty as I only ever seem to visit this site when I have a problem...[:I]
I had my first PA at the beginning of November, and for the past two weeks I've had no symptons of any kind of attack. I have been so happy, most days just carrying on with my daily chores without thinking too much about how I'm feeling.
Last night, I went out to a quiet restaurant with some friends. The meal was delicious (seafood) followed by a lager shandy in a nearby pub. I arrived home smoked my last cigarette (of many that evening!"![Sigh...]) went to bed, relaxed and drifted off to sleep. I woke up very startled, with a pain in my stomach. I thought and told myself that it was indigestion. I took some Andrews Salts, which relieved the feeling then Panic set in... I tried to control my breathing with difficulty.. I couldn't relax. My panic attack seems to be triggered by a feeling of unwell in my stomach, since I had a stomach virus one week before I had my first panic attack.
I'm fearing now that I might go off my food and have some sort of eating disorder. I enjoy my food.....
I woke up this morning feeling shakey with a knot feeling in my stomach and a dry mouth...
What do you think is wrong... I don't feel stressed or anxious about anything... :(
