Digestive issues

Hi everyone, a little background, I got off my meds about 3 months ago. I was doing ok for a bit, but now my anxiety is back with a vengeance. Anyway my digestive health has never been worse. I have stomach cramps, indigestion, bloating and gas/wind. Anyway I finally decided to go to the doctor today and during the examination I jumped off the table and ran out of his office. I was scared and my anxiety was through the roof. The doctor made a dumb remark “I’m not going to tell you what I’m looking for to make your anxiety worse” who says that? That sentence threw me right off. So long story short, I didn’t get any medical help. I aborted my GP appointment and went to my psychiatrist who prescribed the same meds again in lower doses and I guess I’m at square one again. I feel so helpless and frustrated.

You did the best you could at the time. I also have stomach pains , I think it's from stress and anxiety and eating too fast from it. I found gas X helps.

I ended up not taking the meds though. I’m scared to go back on them. I booked another appointment with a different GP next week. So we will see how that goes

Why would you be afraid of a med you had already been on? I totally understand the fear with a new med but this totally confuses me!!
