help panicking?

[Em.ma]

one worry is my friends good at hair and she did it for me 3 times when i was round there this weekend. but she was quite rough with the hair dryer/brush/straigten irons and my head hurts and i can feel things at the back of my head. Still feel nauseas aswell (all the time even when im not thinking about being anxious) also still get pain in nose to :( still convinced i have an infection

also getting really bad twitching in right eye and just above it in my forhead and further above it to sometimes :'(
also my friends house has wooden floor and i didnt realise i was bare foot in there almost all weekend and now im scared of splinters. also still got the two tiny black dots on my hand from a few days ago and i found another on the tip of my finger.

at the moment got pain above left eye. really worried about bleeding to the head

another list of my worries is:
- bad sinus issues ( i think its my sinusues) (when i 1st got it had migranie and dizziness)
- last week been getting stingy achy eyes
- slight ear pain
- when i get the eye twitch now its more in more forehead and along to the top of my nose sometimes (also feels like it goes along side on nose to sometimes
-pain/feelings at back of head.
-stomach pain (really bad on friday) and conspiation.

Ooooooooooh Emma !!!! Can you please put ANXIETY next to all your list of worries and trust me YOU ARE NOT DYING!

When are you seeing the doc again? Have they suggested any meds to help reduce your anxiety levels.

When you at CBT - did you decide to ask a friend to accompany you?

[Em.ma]

Thank you.
Not planned to see my doc again at the moment.
I have counessling in just under two weeks. Not sure if im going to take anyone yet x

[Em.ma]

never had a i had this twicthy eye before (its really bad) (comes after the hair thing which worries me) and been having achy/stingy/ feelings in eyes for at least a week now to

another issue i have is my throat

[Em.ma]

in my throat theres a feeling near the back on top of my mouth (itchy feeling kind of, dont know how to explain it) and throat/neck aches and feels flemmy (sinus and acid mabye) and blocked.
another thing im worried about is acid reflux as i get a lot of burping. and once every week i get a big throat spasm that causes me to stop breathing for a few seconds. (worred that the acid is doing something is not meant to)
also been getting itchy/sore/ and dry skin (dry skin only on hands)

Hair
Unless she starting cutting deep into your head, its unlikely you have an infection there. You could always try cleaning it and putting some savlon on there if you wanted to.

Splinters
If there pain when you put pressure on the area you think there are splinters? If not then its very unlikely you have any, or possibly you might have just that is working its way out. If in doubt you could always call NHS Direct but there was no pain when walking, no pain now and no pain when you put pressure then its unlikely.

Eye Pain
I have pain around my left eye as well, put it down to muscle pains and headaches.

Sinus Issues
Smoking, drinking, staying in doors and being in constant dry air can all make the sinusus go mad, if you have a Boots near you then really try some nasal spray, not the stuff with chemicals in it but the bottle which is just salt and water. It comes in a useful bottle with applicator and can be very helpful (I have sinus issues as well). Costs about £5.

Ear Pain
TMJ can cause that, its all connected. If you have pain in your ear/cheek/jaw area then its possible but you would need to see a dentist about that. If you have a lot of ear pain you could either try some Otex drops or Olive oil, or call up NHS Direct.

Twitching/Head Pain
Sounds like anxiety type muscle twitches and tension. Benzo's or even a hot bath might help.

Stomach Pain/Constipation
A big cause can be not eating enough. When you eat it causes all the muscles of the degistive system to spasm and move food downwards. When you dont eat enough the food just sits. Hot drinks, hot food or laxatives should help this. Some of the milder laxatives with no or little side effects are Milk of Magnesia and Lactulose.

Hope that helps calm your nerves. If you want to talk you are welcome to PM me.
