Hi Learid,

I am so sorry you are having trouble with agorophobia. I hope you're GP is providing you with some support to help you recover from this difficult condition.

Unfortunately, althought GP's can do house calls - it seems that you are going to need the help of more specialised medical staff. GP's can't resolve more serious acute problems like this and it does need to be investigated.

Its a difficult situation, it sounds like you have an action plan already in mind as you know yourself well already. Perhaps some sedative medication would be a good idea as you say.

I see that this was writen 11 hours ago so I hope you managed to make it OK and that you are getting the help you need.

Here is the advice helpline for Rethink Mental Illness 0300 5000 927

and here is the NHS choices webpage on agorophobia

nhs.uk/conditions/Agoraphob...

so you can check if your GP/mental health team are doing all they can to help you. Be sure to check the "map of medicine" tab so you can look at the flow chart that represents your referal options.

Good luck xx

I have to now buy Tenna lady incontinance pants to ware each month for 4 to 5 days as I bleed so heavy it pours from me, and I also get bowl incontinance with it. I have found the only thing that helps with the pain is MS medication for muscle spasms, given to me not for the endo but for spasms in my spine due to arthritis.
