Need help

Told myself that after I saw my neuro, for about, the 7th time I would get this fear out of my head. Unfortunately it hasn't worked. Why are people with HA like this. Why can't I believe anyone. Anybody else had this problem

I no what its like to have HA

When we are so programmed in to thinking a certain kind of way , its not easy to reverse that thinking , but its what we have to work on , i no its not easy but you can do it

I am OK once I have been told everything is alright , but my HA wouldnt be brave enough to have all the tests you have had done

I sit worrying but petrified if I saw someone they would tell me there was something wrong so till I am forced I try avoid it , but you havnt & got the all clear !

When you get these fears tell them to do one , its your anxiety & all those docs cant possibly be wrong , it will get better but it does take some time & practice

Love

Hi huni, I am the same I could be at the doctors twice a month and then get tests done I always have an excuse as to why they come back clear it's awful in fact it's driving me bammie !! It has effected my life so much apart from work I don't go out much at all incase I take ill. The last night I went out I ended up really terrified being sick in the street and paying a taxi of £25 quid home - all because I was quite a bit away and was worried I would take ill. At the min I'm having a big wobble with pains in my stomach but I'm hoping it passed soon. Your not alone xxxx

Hi holly Iam the same, I seen the cardiologist 2 months ago and ruled out any heart probs. here Iam still struggling to accept it as I keep feeling weird, heart racing, palps, pulsing in my stomach and in my throat I don't even feel anxious sometimes but I get the symptoms and then get anxious. That then makes me wonder wtf is going on its something they missed. Iam a nurse aswell so should know better really xxx

I think we have a problem with trusting drs's sometimes, also trusting our own bodies.

What I don't understand with me is when I broke my wrist last September I had great fun with it! Laughing about myself and under no illusion that I wouldn't get better. I even said I trust my body to make my wrist better, isn't my body great!!!!!!!! Whereas I have HA and thinking I don't trust my body to automatically breathe, swallow, beat my heart, make my blood flow round my body. What the hell is going on!!!

Our irrational side of our brain is a very strong being and is very clever at taking over the rational side and causing havoc to very clever and normal people.

To be honest I hate going to the drs I'm scared stiff that they are going to tell me something awful, so I try not to go. I've never been for any tests to check my heart, I won't even have my blood pressure checked because I'm scared what they will find!

I hate it all and wish it would all go away.

Take care xxxxx

Hello loopy I worry because I don't always feel stressed when the symptoms start. I feel reassured for a short period but it doesn't last. I am also a nurse but in mental health. Take care

Holly Iam the same this is what gets me I get all the symptoms and pain when I feel ok and not anxious this makes me think something's wrong somewhere. Last night I was laying watching factor felt good then boom heart a bit erratic weird beating sensations and the odd pain. I think it's difficult to trust when this still happens. I tell myself thought was sent to see him for a reason and was fully checked out I had every test going and the change that is on my ECG is of no significance as my echo was completely normal. I have told myself this is just normal for me xxx
