I would visit your doctor just to put your mind at rest. Are you on medication?

HI milo, oh mate i really feel for you, i get all that and its just got to the point now where im used to it, ive had blood tests done that seem ok, i was promised a head scan but it never happened. make sure you get yourself looked at to be on the safe side. i want you to find something you really like doing, not something you have to do but something that brings you real pleasure and try not to focus so much on the way your feeling, i now its easy said than done but give it a go. x

do you enjoy reading? It might take your mind off it for a bit and you can rest at the same time.

Hello dear, sorry haven't checked before but I had dentist and then busy sorting out BT overcharge of £46?? if people don't check properly their bills companies will steal money from you!!

what happened to you today made you feel that bad?? is it you thinking that something bad is going to happen?? please calm down nothing worth it, i am dizzy every day but I stopped making fuss about it and sometimes is severe and sometimes is good, is all related to the state of your spirit as well!!! like when I am upset and feel heavy chest my dizziness is bad, I give it a week to see, sometimes i calm down but other days is worst because then my pms starts and then i can;t tell the difference.

the only thing i would ask you is just not to be upset, this will fuel it more, if not today tomorrow, I know it is horrible but you have to try. everyone is fed up but we have to help ourselves and this is the only way!!! DONT PANIC DONT BE SCARED DONT BE UPSET

big hug xx

AND i forgot to say had bloods done with g p said they were too thick went to haemotologist he said they were fine dont know who to trust i have looked up thick blood and the first symptom is dizzyness and chest pain because the heart cannot pump thick blood it slows down and causes lack of oxygen to the brain therfore causing dizzyness and pain in chest because heart is working overtime i have always been a blood doner and they always told me i had good thick blood apparently good for someone who is recieving it when they are ill full of nutrients but not too good for the doner as i am fit and healthy and dont need it if that makes any sence x

yes I know what you mean, i knew people who donates blood and the way it works for the patient!! now I heard that donors should keep on giving blood, is just that your body get used to get rid of old blood and new blood is replaced, so I am not sure what happens of you stopped donating?? you should look into that?

problem is dizziness and tight chest are caused by too many things in the body: ears/eyes/headaches/gas/anxiety/depression/thyroid/anemia/etc... so unless someone does a full check up you will not be able to tell where is coming from, for me as anxiety sufferer I know where is coming from.

you have to check your blood again hun, this is serious, but nothing major to treat, I think they will give you Aspirin to make your blood thinner!!

you can always give me some as I am anemic :) :) joke of the night :)

by the way Olympic opening couldn't be any more boring. xx
