Hey everybody,
So like most of us, my HA has most certainly had it's ups and downs, but I've been finding it to be terrible at night. I just started a new job, so I've been pretty tired, but I start to convince myself that I'm tired because of a different cause. I still get pains in my chest, and stomach it feels as if there is a bubble right below my heart. Sometimes I feel a little sick, but it never comes to anything such as vomiting, or really anything beyond mild nausea and discomfort. I've had an EKG and a Stress Echo test, both came back with no problems. So I guess I should be able to rule out most heart problems right? Well in a little under two weeks I'm going to have an endoscopy to see if I have a bacteria infection in my stomach. Also I will have random stiffness/discomfort in my lower back/spine region. This pain is not consistent through the day, but it does happen nearly every day. Though even though I have these pains mainly when I have down time, I generally feel fine at work, and can play basketball and hockey, but when I'm just sitting around, I keep thinking that terrible things are going to happen to me such as my heart just up and stopping.
Every night I keep awake, convincing myself that something is wrong, and then my mind wanders off to terrible, yet outlandish places. I'm not sure what I'm asking here, just kinda needed to vent, and looking for some reinforcement that I'm not losing my mind/life.
