I am really needing some words of perspective if poss.
I've been battling a really bad chest infection for about four weeks now; the doctor gave me some antibiotics and it's knocked the symptoms right back but the tightness across the chest and slight cough is still lingering - it just won't seem to clear completely. This has set off my health anxiety big time as a family friend was talking to me and said one of her friends had a bad cough for weeks and it turned out to be stage one lung cancer....
Now to top it off, I've had really bad nausea and stomach cramps for the last week and I'm getting more and more scared by the day. I'm absolutely trying to fight off the anxiety but I can feel it coming on. I'm sure that the nausea isn't anxiety related as it's been here for a a few days now, I just want to feel better again
:weep:
