Hi everyone,
Wow am i glad that i have found this sight :)
I have been suffering with mild anxiety since October 2009. It started due to a sinus infection which was really bad and hit me as i was sitting the biggest exam which led to a qualification in Law. I started getting symptoms and was told it was anxiety and should resolve. Whatever, it just got worse as i started to suffer with acid reflux. I was prescribed Omprazole but it didn't ease the pains for some 2 months so i was plagued with worry constantly over my stomach pains. Everytime i would eat i would worry. This has eased now as the tablets seemed to have kept the acid reflux at bay.
I started to see my GP over every little symptoms (i bet most of you have been there) only to be told everytime it is anxiety. And i think that i am starting to get a grip of anxiety bit just when i think that i know what a symptom is another one pops up.
I am now having some form of mild counselling and believe this is the way forward, although yet to have a session. However, the symptoms keep coming and i would just like some advice...
Lately i have had problems with my eyes - hard to describe but at best i can say they are tired, very sensitive to light, blurry, foggy. It appears to be when i am work most. Whilst watching TV i don't notice it, neither do i if am i distracted but i work monday to friday 9-5 with a computer. My sight doesn't appear to have changed and can see thinks fine i just feel i want to look away or close my eyes. Obviously i am thinking alsorts that it could be.
GP says to see optician to check my eyes are healthy and believes it is anxiety and the more i focus on the more it will appear.
Any help or friendly chat would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and sorry for the long post :) x
