This is my first time to this forum and I can't believe how much good advice I have picked up already! Health Anxiety is something quite new for me.....or maybe I just didn't have a word for it! It all blew up about 6 months ago with a terrifying panic attack and has been a nightmare ever since. Although my Doc has tried to re-assure me, I cannot understand why they called me back 3 times for a chest x-ray. I have an appointment tomorrow morning at the hospital and am in an awful state!
My Doc felt she has to refer me because my x-ray results didn't make sense, but may be something to do with a ruptured breast implant that has been removed and replaced in the meantime. She told me there was no need to 'fast-track' the appointment, but it's taken nearly 3 months which has been HELL for me.
My friend and hubby keep tellling me if it's serious they would have had me in like a shot, but do they actually give
a monkey's?
I am sick with worry and have all the crappy symptoms and horrible ringing in my ear too!
So sorry to rant and rave....but have kept this bottled up for so long.
Tried some rescue today but not sure how much it has helped. I have been taking the odd 1/2 Alzam out of desparation but I really don't want to become dependant. They're left overs from my husband after he had terrible depression a few years ago after we had 4 armed robberies....not here....we're from SA and only been here a year.
Phew! Sorry about the essay......
