Perfect reading??

[Sandy1710]

Hi all. I’m well aware that this BP reading is fine??? so how am I feeling terrible still. A constant pain/itch/full/lump feeling on the left side of my chest. I hope everyone has a great Thursday!!! I’m going to try and have a good one! Not sure it will work though!!

Sandy, B/P and H/R are GREAT...Those feelings you describe aren't coming from your

heart. Your doctor confirmed that your heart was okay. When we are stressed about

something, our minds focus on that which in turn produces physical sensations. But know that the physical part is not the issue, it's the false signals that our mind is sending the body. You are safe. You are okay. Breathe and let go...

I think it would NOT be beneficial to do self triage, at home, on those of us who have health anxiety.

I agree Indigojoe. The worst thing is being hooked to that monitor. It keeps our anxiety on high alert. xx

Go back to the doctors and ask them to check the lump., itch etc.

Knowing what I know, I’d throw that monitor away if you have a clean bill of health. Like Agora says, you are feeding your anxiety by constantly self checking.

Don’t try and have a good day. Just take each day as it comes and accept that some days may be bad, some may be good. Just accept it all and those symptoms will fade away.
