going mad

[drivingmeinsane]

hi, i'm only 24 and i have kids. i have scared myself that i may have vcjd and its that bad that my legs constantly ache, itch, burn tingle and feel really numb my wrist keeps aching aswel and when i stand i'm convincing myself that i wobble, i also think my speach has gone really funny even though people around me say it hasn't. i feel that i'm loosing my mind can't remember what i did 2 mins ago i can't concentrate on anything apart from thinkin that i'm going to die and leave my kids with no mother. i can't help feeling like it i don't want to get up and do anything, i just sit on the laptop all day trying to find answers can anybody help? :scared15:

I know how you feel.I am 40 and have a 6 and 7yr old and i am convincing myself i have lung cancer and they wont have a mam etc.I know its hard to accept when people say we are making ourselves ill because it feels so real and the symptoms are real.I am also like you and i sit all day looking at symptoms and making myself worse.I dont know what to say to make you feel better but just to let you know you arent alone.:hugs:
