Hey everyone! I hope everyone is feeling happy and positive today ��
I’ve not really been on here much for the past 5 years because I’ve actually been alright health-wise, but I feel like I’ve gone backwards a bit which is frustrating. Ah well.
I’ve had a bit of an issue since about the 3rd of this month with my stomach..
I didn’t really want to post anything just because I’ve been trying to not want constant reassurance that I’m not dying, but the problem is still here.
It started out of the blue with this pressure feeling right at the top of my abdomen (sort of just under my chest between the rib cage?) I think.. It’s like there’s something just sitting there constantly and just a bit of a full feeling? It’s quite frustrating because I can feel it probably 90% of the time, so it’s sometimes hard to keep my mind off it.
I’ve been going in and out of bad anxiety throughout the days with just horrible morbid thoughts about something growing and just leaving it (thanks google), then later in the evening thinking rationally and being quite calm.
I went to the doctors on Monday and he felt my stomach and took my blood pressure and said everything is fine and that I’m too young to have anything seriously wrong with my stomach (I’m 28) and maybe it’s just anxiety mixed with indigestion (because I do get indigestion a lot and was getting it a lot around Christmas, but it always cleared after a few hours) so he gave me 20mg of omeperazole and a form about gad (I’ve never gone to the doctor about my general anxiety because I just hate being in the doctors and just talking to people in general
) and that was that.
I’m just wondering if anyone has experience this weird fullness sensation in the place I described that doesn’t really go? It’s just weird how it came out of no where when I wasn’t feeling that stressed or anxious during that period and now I’m a right anxious mess.
Thanks if anyone responds x
