Had tests on Saturday, x rays and blood work. I've been keeping really busy to keep my mind off of it but as Sunday winds down and Monday looms.....my mood and spirits are quickly sinking:(. As always I'm thinking the worst......

BWB,

I think you are going to find that whatever is causing your symptoms...is something very common and treatable. Try to think of this as a postive step toward getting the relief you need...rather than something you need to fear.

If you can't shake the worrisome thoughts...try saying:

"It's not time to worry about that now."

...because it's not! As far as you know, your results are going to show nothing to be scared about.

Stay distracted and put the results out of your mind until it is time to review them with your doctor.

Keep us posted, and we will keep you encouraged.:)

Hi Beth

I know how you feel I hate waiting for test results.

I think keeping yourself busy is a good idea and as SC mentioned if they do find something it will be treatable.

I have bad health anxiety so when ever I start to worry about my health I just tell myself it's my health anxiety making me feel this way which seems to help.

Hibee
