Health and anxiety,

[Kerryducks]

Hello . My name is Kerry, I am a 60 year old staff nurse living in hull East Yorkshire, I have suffered with stress and anxiety for about 6 years since lost my mum. This has exacerbated recently with family issues and health anxiety, I’ve been diagnosed with severe high blood pressure and I am having investigations at my gp . I also have a newly diagnosed heart murmur. As I am a. Nurse my mind is in overdrive at the moment, as you can imagine. I’ve headaches and feel trembly and anxious. I’ve been started on amlodipine 5mg on Wednesday and have to start propranolol when I get my prescription later, looking forward to getting some advice and help and chatting with you all, thank you xx
