it doesnt sound odd health anxiety can cause us to really think we have a problem , like today theres something wrong with my heart cos my chest feels funny,i think we believe the drs whilst we are there and when we get home we are back to square one its horrible

HI. have you tried ringing no panic helpline as well they are really good when you in the grip of anxiety to talk to. also i have been known to talk to the samaritans who are there for anyone, not just for people in distress. just a thought.

so sorry to hear that, :hugs: , hopefully it has been caught early and she'll be given the right treatments etc, breast cancer if it's caught early is easily treated as far as I know, so please try not to worry - I know you will be!, but you have to be strong for your sister and strong for yourself also. Hope you get the right amount of support also, maybe worth a trip to your GP or something? Hope everything goes OK, thinking of you, your sister and your family x :hugs:

And, to answer your earlier question - we're paying for nhs direct through council tax or something (:blush: i'm a bit thick! lol), so if you ever feel the need to phone then do, they can be very reassuring xx

thank you very much for your kind message.

she coming home later today so i should find out whats happening.

even more sad news, that my dad i care for is looking like he going to have to go into a care home. (he has a mental illness)

as for me as i said i know its nothing as if it was something wrong with me the pain wouldnt just change and go somewere else, just gotta get my mind to accept that fact, you know what i mean?
