Comments:

Still reallying trying to get used to it, my body doesn't seem to want to recover at te moment, as I get over one symptom and then the following week I have another.

Judging from some of the questions, I seem to get away with it quite lightly, of course to me it doesn't feel that way.

I'm getting there...the longer I have lived with the anxiety the better I know it and so the less power it seems to have. But the symptoms are harder to shake, and I'm sure some are due to actual illness.

Great questionnaire - I can't wait to read others' replies

Comments:

I'm better than I was 3 months ago I thought I was going to die every day then. I used aspirin for my impending heart attack every day/night have stopped that. I'm on beta blockers and the heart worry has gone mostly but has been replaced by breathing, headaches and stomach pain worries! Currently going through a hernia/appendicitis phase.
