Yes Dorset,

Sounds like exactly the same. Real bad muscle tension in my back, shoulders, neck, jaw, burning aching pain. Nausea, churning stomach, unbalanced, shaking, ringing in my ears! I think I must walk about rigid all day.

Doctor says there are no more tests to be done, I've had MRI on brain, neck, back, endoscopy, and bowel tests, all the heart tests, been tested for thyroid, vitamin deficiencys...

So exactly what is there?! So I must be doing this to myself. I must be really clever as I feel crap most days, I might get the odd blip where I feel normal but that's it. It's all very well for the doc to say nothing more they can do, but I don't think they would want to live like this.

I am going back to the doctor, but I have no clue what I'm going to say anymore.

This isn't a life it is just an existence for me.

And I am so sorry you are feeling the same if I find a miracle I will definitely let you know.

I just feel scared and miserable all the time.

I wish you well x

Its definitely not a way to live and then to learn we could be doing this to ourselves.

I wish us well....

If you haven't already, read Claire Weeks "Self help for nerves" I've just finished it and it's the best advice and explanation for why you are feeling the way you do and how to get out of the cycle.

I have had a hard time accepting my symptoms are anxiety related but turns out tension and worry can do all sorts of funky things to us. x

If you apply the advice given in that book, in full, recovery is inevitable. Seen it, done it, got the t-shirt. 😎

Yes. I remember saying that on a 31 calendar day, I may have 5 normal days. And lucky if I get that. The other 26 days are full of symptoms, worrying, and fears. I know exactly what you mean.
