Hi all,

Well today has been slightly better... We've been out and about in the car... Now the weirdest thing is when I'm a passenger in the car, it's the only time I actually feel normal! I don't understand :(

I've been having weird chest pains today and odd throat sensations which really haven't been very pleasant...

I am also still having these awful dizzy spells... It's not pleasant... I keep pulling up awful thoughts that I've bad in the past about people with chest pains, they went to hospital and went home and then died a sudden death :( I just have this awful feeling that because I love being up here so much that this is the place I will die :( I keep picturing the most awful things and I am really struggling :(

I am struggling to cope but I really want to beat this....

Hi

You are doing really well :-)

Keep letting someone drive you around , if you feel normal when they do, I would :-/

Try not to question why , it just causes me more pressure when I do , just enjoy the good times & accept them :-)

All these thoughts & feelings is your anxiety & we are so used to believing nothing good should be happening that these thoughts start to creep in when they are (the anxiety ) trying to spoil it !

Tell them to do one , you will be posting when you come back that you are fine , believe me !

Sorry if this isnt the best answer , have flu , so trying to type in between coughing & sneezing , but just to let you no we are here for you :-)

Love

Blugh flu doesn't sound good :(

I love being a passenger my OH thinks I'm a bit of a loon haha!

Well, I've always associated food and eating with dizzy spells.... Today i ate dinner and was like O yes no dizzy spell... Thought ooo I will do the washing up and then bang dizzy jolt :( these jolts though, they send this word feeling right thought my body... Like a wave of tingles... It's weird... I really don't like it and it makes me thing I'm having a seizure or about to have one :( x

No its not good , been in bed most of the day , which isnt me at all , but cant sleep for coughing !

You see you have the answer as you said you ate no dizzy spell , so straight away once you realized , it appeared , that shows how anxiety can bring these symptoms on !

Believe me if you get air lifted to Lancaster infirmary they are very good with chest problems. My Dad has a lot of work done there and they were brilliant, they were with my mum to and I always said I would have my babies there!

I do hope the rest of your holiday is calmer and you start to feel a bit better

Take care xxx

O god I hope I don't get airlifted anywhere!! :(

I know so do I really, I do know a doctor who does air ambulance and he is one of the loveliest men I have ever met.

I meant it as some reassurance really xxxx
