anxiety leaves me in fear

So this all started about 2 months ago when I got a stomach bug and was sick for just 1 night. The next day I had family come in which just put my anxiety to a high. My daughter ended up being sick for 3 nights in a row which was hectic. Doctors and hospital visits all that week. My company went home and things got better. For a week. My GP had put me on omeprazole for my stomach issues. I went back because they were still bothersome. She said it's my anxiety. She tried Zoloft and buspirone. Both of those made things worse. I started to fear I was having a heart attack. She did an EKG and said it was fine. I worried about that for over 2 weeks. She suggested I see a therapist which I am and I do enjoy going to talk to her. She also prescribed lexapro. I took for 4 days and decided I didn't need meds. I need to overcome this naturally. Well. Now I've gotten over the heart attack worry but I've had a history of cyst on my ovaries and my left side hurts like I've got another. OBGYN says she'll do an ultra sound. I fear of the worse it being cancer. I have two year old. I fear that I'm going to die and she won't have a mother. I just want to feel normal. I can't sleep at night, I wake up all hours of the night. My stomach is upset. If I'm busy I don't think about it. But it's mostly at night when I should be sleeping that I worry. Anyone else have problems sleeping and stomach issues because of anxiety?

Yes ! I'm currently going through the same thing with stomach issues. I have a 4 year old daughter. I'm worried about all the same things you are . I wake up every 2 hours throughout the night. My doctor said me being so worried would kill me faster then anything else. I started talking vitamins to heal my gut and I feel like they are working. My doctor prescribed me lexapro but I feel like it made my stomach more upset and I had a really bad panic attack. Hopefully we can get to feeling better soon .

It's amazing how strong our love is for our children that it makes us think about things we didn't normally think about. Which vitamins are you taking for your stomach. I was up all last night sick to my stomach, it was burning and I was vomiting. My doctor prescribed the lexapro. I took it for the 4 days and idk if it was the placebo affect but I was feeling better. Maybe I ought to try taking it again. I just fear if I decided to become pregnant that it will transfer to the baby. I don't plan on becoming pregnant anytime soon but still.

Yes the love we have for our children is definitely strong. We can also use that to push through this madness in our heads . Easier said than done . I'm taking Rainbow light . It has full digestive support . Bacillus coagulans 25 million cfu. I honestly think it's helping. I also take fish oil . If you look it up it says it's good for anxiety. You can order them online .

Your right. Last night I just kept telling myself that I have to be strong for my daughter which then was followed by crying. ( big old baby I am ) I will look that up! Thank you, we will get thru this.
