Sigh! These last few days have not been fun. I keep having a hard time breathing and am scared to eat cause I feel all weird after and get freaked out. I am also able to now see my pulse in my neck and it is freaking me out! Blah. I know because I am so focused on it I am doing it to myself, but sometimes it is hard to get your mind off it!

Hope you're feeling better! I was having a rough couple of weeks myself. Figured i'd just be my goofy self and try to cheer you up a bit. Haven't heard from you in a while. I'm hoping that meant you felt better, and are just having a bit of a setback right now.

BIG ((((HUGS)))) Fox

Hi FL,

I can see my pulse in certain points in my body too...this is not uncommon, and fine.

Try to eat small frequent meals, or sip ensure shakes so that you are getting some nutrition without the upset stomach afterward.

Remeber that you have felt this way before, and gotten through it to a place of feeling better...you will get there again. Anxiety cycles, and now you may be in a place of higher symptoms...but they will pass!

Hang in there and keep posting...we understand, and are here for you.:)

S.C.

P.S.~. FL, with a pulse of 90...looks like you beat Foxy;p Try again later...she'll want a rematch!

Sure is crazy! I probably have had 20 diseases within the last year LOL! I know it will pass, its just mind controlled and I need to realize I am fine. The thing that has been bugging me the most is "clogged arteries" LOL, but I know, I have had 5 ekgs now, and they were all normal, so its just all in my head. I am always anxious when moving around lots, so I know that is just me freaking out, and not breathing correctly. And thank you both for making me feel better! .... And fox, 72 right now LOL! Hahaha sure does cheer me up!

Good Morning FL,

As funny as it may seem, laughter might just be the cheapest and easiest way to relieve stress. Joking around with friends, watching funny films or TV shows and reading funny comics are cheap and fun solutions to de-stress.

I am glad to see you still have your sense of humor and may it serve you well.  turn

A woman invited some people to dinner. At the table, she turned to her six-year-old daughter and said, "Would you like to say the blessing?" I wouldn't know what to say," the little girl replied. "Just say what you hear Mommy say, " the mother said. The little girl bowed her head and said "Dear Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?"

 

May your day be filled with smiles and sunshine.

 

Kitt

Well, i'm glad it cheered you up a bit. It always works for me, so I decided to "share" my silliness with a friend. I seem to go through cycles too, although I can say that since raising the mgs of my medicine, the yucky OCD-ness I always had about my heart seems to be easing quite a bit.

I'm not thinking about it every minute of every day. I stopped taking my blood pressure twice a day, and I just kind of try and go with the flow. I still have my moments when I check my HR and BP, but it's ALOT better now.

Hoping you get through this cycle soon! Sending many hugs your way........Fox
