I have been apparently suffering with health anxiety and secondary depression for over a year. Last January I felt sick all the time and despite blood tests and daily visits to every GP at my surgery, I was convinced I was dying. I went to see a psychiatrist and was given Mirtazapine, which did seem to help and in May last year I went back to work.
I have had some horrible physical symptoms since December - tummy ache, lower back pain, heartburn and feeling pretty horrible.
I went back to my GP who felt my tummy and suggested that it was nothing more than IBS.
I went back again and I asked (goodness knows why) for a pelvic ultrasound. Now I am convinced that I have everything from ovarian cysts to ovarian cancer. i have my ultrasound tonight and I am terrified. What if they find something? I just can't seem to think logically anymore.
Is this just me? Everyone around me looks at me strangely, even when I tell them of my symptoms and how bad I feel.
Sorry for the long post - just needed to get this off my chest.
