I'm sitting in my bathroom almost in tears because I was working on my scrapbook but the thought that I'm dying just keep surfacing and depression sets in . I have all these symptoms but no light at the end of the tunnel... only thing all the bloodwork has shown is a vitamin d deficiency (I was at a 5) and a slightly elevated white blood count (said could be due to stress/smoking)... all hormones normal . Had my abdomen cat scanned and my head all normal..just feel like I'm just going to die one day from something they didn't find
My last hope is the extra thyroid testing .. since I was on the low range of normal.. Didn't really have a question just needed to vent and if anyone has any advice ...

IP,

Going through the health anxiety self help in our Resource should help bring relief until you get your final tests.

Even if you done them before, it takes repetition sometimes...especially for stubborn/intense health worry.

We understand and care...so keep us posted and let us know how we can support you.

I agree with SC, Please check out the HA links in our resources, they should help you. Other then that I really have no advise, but I want to give you a hug. :) {{{{{{irishpride9787}}}}}}

irish,

It's easier said than done, but worrying isn't going to do a bit of good. Allowing these thoughts to consume you is not necessarily killing, but it's causing you to not live. We are all mortal and we are all going to go sometime, but don't hurry it along.

While it may not be the most sound advice, I wouldn't try to quit smoking right now, but you are going to want to at some point once you have gotten a grip on things.

Much love.

Thanks for all the replies! I've been having a really good day no brain fog energy and no head pain ! I'm beginning to wonder if vit d deficiency could cause some of my problem I've been taking a one a day since Friday . And John I agree now is not the time to try and quit I tried the other day and went into a full panic attack ! AngelLisa thanks for the hugs and supportive reply!
