Hello everyone, I hope you are all well.
Im really having a bad time of things healthwise at the moment and its bringing on horrid panic attacks.
I have chronic renal failure and currently have an infection which is making me feel quite ill. I have to catheterise myself when I need to pee, and when I panic I cant get the catheter in so that leaves more pain[Sigh...]
Im also being test for crohn's disease as the gastroenterologist is certain I have that or Ulcerative colitis, so thats making me feel quite ill too.
And I top of that I suffer from vertigo due to sensitive ears/balance and I currently have very painful ears which is making the vertigo worse.
I keep trying to tell myself that im ok, Usually I can deal with all this. But for some reason this weekend has been one non stop panic, And I really dont know how to calm myself down.
I keep telling my self that im ok and that ive got a long road ahead of me healthwise and that I can handle it, and I feel more positive but then 30 minutes later im in a crazy panic again, thinking im dying.
My partner is great, always supporting me and trying to make me think positive but I cant seem to snap out of this panic attack.
Does anyone have any advice? I didnt sleep last night or the night before due to the panic attacks, so Im really tired right now which isnt helping matters.
Thanks in advance
