So I've gone full circle.....
At the start of the year I had a major brain tumour fear that totally consumed me. I had an issue with my eye plus pins and needles down one side and weeks of dizziness. It got so bad I enede dup in a mental health assessment unit. Diagnosed with extreme health anxiety. I let it be for a bit but then I started having trouble reading, I kept missing words and then it started happening when I spoke. I kept tripping up over words and saying the wrong things all the time. I also kept typing wrong things and made typo after typo and I went into meltdown mode. Anyway I ended up in A&E and they gave me a CT scan as they could see what a mess I was. Nothing showed up and the Docotr told me to stop wishing bad luck on myself. Things cleared up after that...
Which brings me to now. The speech errors have started creeping in again, last night I told my son to stop missing me around instead of messing. Im finding Im having to make a more conscious effort to say the right thing and I still end up tripping up as im thinking a different word to what I want to say and a frankenstein word ends up coming out. Im also finding im really forgetful. For instance I want to Mcds drive thru, got my drink then drove off! Its only after I parked up I realised I didnt collect my food and today ive gone to work without a belt for the first time ever although I do remember picking it up this morning.
I think you all know where there this is going.....back to major brain tumour anxiety. Im so tired of it. Ive been on mirtazipine for 4 months and had 7 CBT sessions but it just doesnt seem to be improving. Could this all be anxiety again or should I consider going back to the GP? I've avoided them for 5 weeks now which is an achievement for me this year. I don't want to break that if this is just normal anxiety doing this.
