A little update

[PopTarts27]

So ive not really used this website since I last wrote, but I've had enough now, death would be easier than living like this.

I've had a chest xray and more bloods this time bloods came back with slightly raised inflammation levels, I've had to send of a stool sample and go for an ultrasound everything's come back fine on them.

But everyday I'm stuck with acid reflux or fits of burping even of water. Drs put me on lansoprazole but It didn't agree with me so moved over to omezeprol, started it 2 days ago and I'm refusing to take it again,as I'll take it then start panicking that I'm going to have side effects

I first thought it was a hormonal imbalance as I seemed to be ok for 2 weeks then 2 weeks I wouldn't be, still no where near getting CBT but I've had enough it's starting to make me depressed

Hi. Please call for help if you think you'll do something. You say you don't want to take your meds because of panic attacks, is this correct?

[PopTarts27 in reply to Hidden]

Hiya no I wouldn't do anything to harm myself I just mean death would be easier than feeling ill all the time.Yes I've stopped taking them as as soon as I've taken it I start panicking. It's just a vicious circle

I'm glad to hear that😊One more question: has the medication caused the panic attack or is it your mind telling you you'll have side effects, which then leads to an attack?

[PopTarts27 in reply to Hidden]

Seems its my mind telling me I'll have a side effect to it, I've never really been bothered before about medication, so I don't no where it's come from

[Hidden in reply to PopTarts27]

Thanks for your honesty🙂

Do you have health anxiety by any chance? You say you don't know where this is coming from, so maybe not?

I thought that at first but my symptoms usually start 2/3 days before and then go right through till ovulation, when I looked back at records of phonecalls it always seemed I rang the drs at them times, when I told him I think it's hormonal he just dismissed it and put me on mess for acid

I went through 6 doctors and ended up diagnosing myself. Look IAPMD.org. And most doctors don’t know anything about it

Hi I am on omezaprole because of acid reflux and I have never had any side effects. Many of my friends take it too and none of them have any either. Start taking it as it will help is my advice.
