View Full Version : help
hi there i have come across this website and and hoping somebody may have some advice for me...i have suffered from panic attacks for 6 years but just recently it seems to be getting 100 times worse i think due to a health scare ....i had a chest infection that i was given antibiotics for but it didnt go and now i am having chest and back pains i have trouble swallowing i sometimes get headaches and i am just exhausted my doctor has recently sent me for a chest xray ...i am so scared it is something like lung cancer i am 31 and have been smoking for 16 years .....i have been waiting 6 days for chest xray results now if it was cancer do you think they would have been in touch sooner????? Can these syptoms be connected to my panic attacks ?????
Please help
Hi frag
Welcome to the site I think you will find many people on here who will understand your worries and you will get some good advice and support on here.
Sorry to hear you have had a bad chest infection, it seems to be a bad year for infections of that kind. I do think that if the hospital had found anything to worry about you would have heard before now. Hopefully you will get the results back soon and you can stop worrying.
Take care

Hey:)
I can tell you now that I've had all of those symptoms, expecially the trouble swallowing etc - the feeling is referred to as "globus". Look it up.:)
I'm 21 and I know I haven't got any sort of cancer, so take that as you will.
I'm also pretty sure they would have got in touch with you, if not just go and ask for an update to settle your mind about it.
lots of help on the forum here so just dive in and search those symptoms too, just to be sure.
