Hey guys so I stupidly touched the top of my middle finger against the stove slightly for a second, it really hurts and I've held it under water for a good 15 to 20 minutes is it okay now? The finger is a little red and the blister is slightly forming I'm just scared it's still burning? Is it okay? I know I want to go to a and e but it's probably not that bad just scared with how much it burns, if it's fine I don't mind dealing with the pain just worried it's still burning :weep:
We've all burnt ourselves at one point or another. No biggie :shrug: If it hurts, ice helps.

You don't need to go to A&E with a burnt finger to be honest.
You seem to get a lot of worries about silly things so I am wondering what help you are getting to deal with it all.
No it’s just a little burn, happens to people all the time.
Don’t play with it, don’t cover it up & don’t put cream on it. It’ll be sore for a day or two.

I'm not receiving any help sadly been this way since my diagnosis apart from two 5 weeks bouts of CBT a year each apart I am a mess particularly lately, thinking one of the dogs has dislocated my toe again by standing on it but don't know why I'm terrified as its just a simple minor injuries visit tomorrow if so, I am a wreck lately

Have you tried meds? Might help ease your anxiety, Epona.

Ask your GP again. You had bad experience with burglary recently too, so anxiety has gone through roof. Meds are not a cure but something needs to be done short-term to get you back on your feet.

I will enquire when i get home, went to A and E for chest pains got given antibs but told to come back if i get shortness of breath ect indicating a blood clot in the lung because of y risk factor with contraceptives.
I should be happy but all i can do is panic in case it is and how would i know to go back? They start from previous blood clots and i know i haven't had ny in my legs or arms just still panicking, i really am mess :(

Sorry for the ramble and bump just really can't sleep and wanted to vent.
This is the first time honestly that getting medical advice/help has made me feel so much more anxious
My risks of blood clots are rather low apart from the contraceptive pill and implant but here I am at 01:10 convinced I have a pulmonary embolism thanks to the doctor who told me to go back to A and E if i got shortness of breath as it possibly may be a blood clot on lung :weep:
It's been 24 hrs and haven't noticed any change other my heartbeat in my chest and it being iregular(fast but then slow/strained) could be my anxiety as its particularly bad today but I'm just convinced I'm gonna die tonight :/
A&E is a waste of time IMO. You need to book a double appointment with your GP and explain how anxiety is ruining and impacting on your life. Show them this thread if necessary. I doubt very much any GP would refuse you a course of meds. But of course you must be willing to commit yourself to taking them and being compliant.
You surely don't want to carry on like this? :shrug:
