I always have one set of symptoms that are making my life hell and I am worrying about. 6 months ago I had funny heart do's different to my normal ectopics that had been good for months and was convinced I had serious heart trouble - been to see cardio had 24hr ecg then 3 week event moniter and cardio says my ectopics have changed to multiple ones which would account for change in symptoms but nothing harmful.
Then I started with the falling sensation as going to sleep - trigger huge number of sleepless nights etc so off I go for a brain mri because I was worried that a tiny benign cyst found on brain mri a few years ago had grown huge - Dr said no way but happy for me to pay for mri and guess what cyst is exactly same forget about it no problem.
I had pelvic ultrasound because it was 12 months from last one and I am perimeno and found small cyst on left ovary- they sure its just an egg cyst but I have to go back later this month for another u/s
I have very bad spine and suffer with one bit of it or another every day and yesterday I got terrible spasm in my ribs and back - worried I was having a heart attack then that changed to is it pancreatic cancer!
I am still very stiff and sore but as just seen Dr this week daren't go back again. I do have gallstones for past 20 yrs but they don't normally bother me but I was having a check up ultrsound every 2 yrs with my old GP but since moving house new Gp says this is not necessary BUT I want the ultrasound as it stopped me worrying about pancreatic cancer.
I am so fed up of constantly being in a panic about some symptom or other - I find that one thing will rule my life for about 6 months then it changes to something different and I am constantly staggering from one set of tests to another.
My GP has just done blood test for lyme disease which I know are very inaccurate unless it comes back positive they don't get false posistives because I have so many unexplained symptoms but they are all very real and painful. I know my dodgy spine , IBS etopics etc can account for most of my symptoms but I am fed up of suffereing all the time:weep:
Sorry just wanted a rant!
