Hi everyone!

I wanted to know for those who suffer HA if you ever worry your symptoms from anxiety might mess you up when you are actually dealing with the real thing?

Besides my cold I was doing better then today I woke up with a bad calf hurts when I flex it I don't remember hurting it or anything I am scared it might be something bad :(
