Hi everyone old and new ,I was very active member on here several months ago(sharonlou).I came off the site as I suffered with health anxiety reading everyone elses symptoms made me worse as I then decided I had them.Never mind.I still suffer with anxiety but no where near to the extent I was.I can now go out of the house more and touch wood the health anxiety is under control now.I had nearly a year with CBT and after a battle of trying to cope myself I was prescribed fluxoteine.

Hello Sharon nice to see you back.

My health anxiety comes and goes, and I know what you mean about hearing or reading of symptoms setting you off - me too!

I can't read or watch anything remotely medical, fact or fiction, as I'll remember any symptoms shown or discussed and then start worry worry worry.
