Hi,
Just wondered if anyone else suffers from similair anxiety condition as me.
Basically about 3 years ago I started getting chest pains and thought I was having a heart attack etc. Went to the doctors and then hospital and all was fine. I carried on getting them for the next 9 months on and off, maybe a week of pain and then a week free. After visiting the doctors again he thought it was stress related and gave me some anti-depressants.
The chest pain can of sorted itself put although I would get them on and off for a while. Then about a year ago i started to get pain just below my belly button I had a major panic attack thinking I had appendix problem and went ot the hospital who took blooRAB etc and again sent home saying it was not my appendix. They refereed me for more tests etc and I had scans and blooRAB etc again nothing showed up. I belief the pain is brought on when I am under stress etc. I can mange this but something change in me that I just cannot explain.
I would go on holidays 3 to 4 times a year and loved every minute of it. Now when I go away I am really anxious all the time and have panic attacks both before going or when I am there. I will also get the pains, interestingly I only get either or so one day I will get chest pain and the nexy day pain in my stomach never together. As soon as I get home within a couple of days it will clear up again. The pains are mild never severe but all I do when I get them is concentrate on them.
I feel that I am really weird and do not look forward to going away at all anymore. I have had some concilling in the past and am waiting to see a someone who specalises in this area.
Just wondered if there is anyone else out there with similair issues and how they cope with them.
Thanks for reading.
