I know it's easier said than done but try to stay calm . Hopefully you get your surgery then recovery goes well and you never know you could be back here one day starting c25k all over again. Good luck 😊😊

There's no reason why there should be anything wrong with your blood test. Can you find a yoga meditation exercise on YouTube, or mindfulness, to try and block the anxious thoughts? Pinned and needles and chest hurrying is all part of anxiety, you sound like you're hyperventilating. You need to try and take some long slow breaths.
