Hi there... i just found out im pregnant with my 4th baby. Unfortunately, i found out while in the emergency room friday night, from being rear ended in my new car while i am suffering severe whiplash. Great news while im n pain, but wish i wouldve found out in the comforts of my home. So.neway, i have severe panic attack, health anxiety and hypocondria. When i was 5 mnths pregnant with my almost 3 yr old, i was diagnosed with mitral valve insufficiency and a heart murmur which are pretty normal during pregnancy. Thats when everything started with my HA.
I have been to the emergency room over 200 times, i have panic attacks everyday.in the shower, i have stopped going places, i fear i am going to die everyday with a heart related issue. I dont take any antidepressants, as i had bad side effects with paxil and celexa, so i havent taken nething since. I am perscribed xanax .25 which i take 1/4 of the pill at a time. It works for me for the most part. So now that im pregnant, and knowing i cant take my xanax, i am freaking out! Im afraid ill develop the heart issues again, an it get worse. Im afraid of stress causing problems. Im just afraid of everything!
