Doctors words.....

Not sure whether that would be a good idea, Seymour..

Just offering support any way I can. Sorry.

Don't apologise. You've already given Jonny great support by your words alone. He doesn't need to ask you anything about AS because he doesn't have it.

I think you have been fab in the words you've already written Seymour, but I entirely agree with Pulisa - he really doesn't need to ask anything from you at all, he has clear test results and doesn't have AS. You do have AS and have given a good account of how it affects you and your life, and with the genuine words you you've written and the complete reassurance he has had from doctors, there really should be no more questions. It isnt a condition he has, so doesn't need to ask questions about it.

+1

There is no benefit in offering added detail into a condition he doesn't have. There is no upside to this at all.

+1 on this too. It won’t be worth telling him about a condition he doesn’t have. The knowledge doesn’t serve him.

Thanks everyone including Seymour, I appreciate all your words and advice

Jonny, do you have a go to game app or something similar on your phone? I would suggest that when you start to feel like you need to check something or overthink something, flick something on that diverts your attention for 5 minutes. Doesn't have to be a phone app, could be anything. It's time to start retraining those neural pathways that encourage you to seek reassurance.

I went back to docs to get signed off for a week as my anxiety is all over the place at the moment.

He confirmed AGAIN it’s not AS I really should start believing but I need to work on my actual illness of anxiety

So now you have a lot of time on your hands which can be unhelpful with HA.

How do you plan to work on your anxiety? What about having a read of Joe's suggestion for starters?
