does anyone else suffer with worries about this?
Im a 24 year old male, dont smoke, dont drink, dont do drugs.
I was diagnosed with anxiety about 6 months ago now, and after much fighting and finally some acceptance, i can accept i have health anxiety.
although I've had blood tests etc. done, it still doesnt put my faith in the NHS, especially when I had symptoms exactly the same as a stroke victim and it took me 3 trips to A&E for them to clarify it wasnt anything serious.
but about 30mins ago, i got a sharp pain that felt like it travelled up the left side of my neck. then my jaw/cheek felt a bit numb and I've also started gettin pains in the left side of my head now so I'm worried about a blood clot. even though I've had blood tests done and have been given no reason that I should just randomly develop a blood clot.
should i be worried? is a trip to the doctor necessary? or is it just anxiety playin up on me again? its so hard to decide whats best.
anyone else have this concern/similar concerns?
