Hey all,
I've been suffering HA for several years now, however, I've only really nailed what to call it after discovering these forums and recent trips to the DR.
I've always been very worried about my health. Every bump, pain, spot and whatever else is instantly thought of to be cancer or some other terrible thing.
Even though I know I suffer HA - my head still can't get out of the loop of the current symptoms being the 'real' ones that will get me.
Here's my current standing:
I recently had some blood + urine tests for a problem I was worried about. All came back clear, however i did talk a lot about my HA with my DR who was great and suggested I see a psychologist, which I'm going to get onto.
Has anyone else had help with this? Also - how does meds like Zoloft work with HA, does anyone find that it helps?
Anyway, after making plans to deal with my Anxiety - more triggers occur. My right leg now feels 'strange' and 'heavy'. If feels like I have to 'think' about moving with it. My hand also is feeling cramped and strange.
Now i'm thinking i've got MS.
HA really is a nasty thing. You always think, 'if only this got better I'd be great' but then something else comes and takes its place.
Feeling very low about all this, and even though I know i have HA - this MS scare feels very real. I'm hoping that the symptoms are something to do with my anxiety.
Anyway, just thought I'd intro myself and let you all know my current standing.
Thanks for reading everyone!
