    anxiety back re new job

    i start my new job wednesday after being off ill on drs advice since august. The last 2 days i have had an ache/stabbing discomfort in my upper left side of back and a horrible taste in mouth and a sorish left cheek and feel like im having difficulty breathing plus the usual panic attack symptoms

    Getting worried now - could this all be because of starting a new job

    TIA

    I would go as far as to say it’s extremely likely it’s all because of the new job. Best of luck with it! I hope you enjoy

    We carry an awful lot of tension when we are anxious so that definitely doesn’t surprise me! I’m glad you’re feeling better though!

    well hopefully a positive update - was out visiting friends all day and no symptoms, yet when i got home after dinner straight on pc and boom they all came back so im wondering if it is as simple as poor posture at computer

    It is very possible! That and the fact that as you relax and wind down without as much to focus your mind on you are thinking about things a little more or the anxiety levels are able to rise - this usually happens without me even being aware of it, I always used to say I wasn’t anxious before (insert symptom) started, but looking back I honestly was, it was just so much my normal state of mind that I didn’t even realise!

    I’m glad that you had a good time with friends though!

    thanks for that mouse

    Did have to go to pharmacy today as no dr apps for over 2 weeks, or phhone calls. Spoke to pharmasist and said they were sure it was muscle problems as deep heet spray helping and pain not spreading but still feeling very shakey

    Try and trust in what you know, for what it’s worth I’m of the opinion it’s muscular too. It takes a little while for these things to heal and even more if we keep tense worrying about things!

    Re: anxiety back re new job

    just seen message as went into severe anxiety mode

    dr on call phoned me and gave me his reassurance too and also said muscular and make an appointment with my own dr for end of month to get it checked out properly

    here really can be a great help, we sometimes dont realise it all the time but it genuinely is
