Just thought i'd say hi.
I'm new to all this, only been suffering for 3 weeks now. It all started when I got these pains in my chest and down my left arm. I was convinced I ws having a heart attack, so went straight to A+E had and ECG and evrything was fine.
The night after the pains got worse, so went back again did another ECG and blood tests, Plus a chest Xray ( I had a baby 6 weeks ago, so wanted to rule out blood clot)
They settled for a few days and then got worse, I just kept getting in such a panic! so off I went again to A+E. But again everything fine. They kept saying it was my muscles.
3 weeks on and the pains are alot better, but I just don't feel right.I'm convinced something bad is going to happen and I am going to die and miss out on my children growing up. I'm drving myself mad. I keep feeling really spaced out and getting little pains everywhere and this morning woke up feeling really dizzy. But i don't know if its just the anxiety. I went to the doctors and they are doing more tests to find out whats causing it, i just can't stop the thinking that soon I'm going to die and this is my bodys way of telling me.
Anyway the doctor has giving me some tablets to try calm me down to see if it helps in anyway. ( i don't really want to take them tho)
I want to feel better soon, I want to enjoy having my baby. I'm missing out on so much because i can't think of anything else. I wish i could switch these thoughts off! I'm sick of being scared.:weep:
