So the cardiologist said my heart sonogram and 24 hour monitor was all normal. She said I didn't have to come back for 6 months but called me an hour later and said I need a stress test lol. I don't know why. blush Plus my blood work came back and says I have gout shakehead and high uric acid. So I'll be seeing a Nutritionist next week. As well as my psychologist. She put me on Hydroxyzine and I did not like it at all. She refuses to put me back on xanax even though it works for me. All my medical records show I'm not addicted or abusing it. So I'll see what she says when I see her. I know my heart is fine but I'm still scared. I wish I could just accept what they said and let it go. I found out my brother is having a baby and instead of being happy I was pissed. Because I thought I'm here going through all this and as bad as I want a family. I'll never have one because I can't even get through a week without breaking down. I was so ashamed of how I felt. Please don't think I'm not I am I just felt everything hit me at once. It's so hard to explain to family when you feel like this.This site is like a life line for me.

Hi for first 2 to 3 months of panic attack i had the fear that i will have a heart attack or something like that. My sister had a baby and i was pissed as well and family did not help me at all so i had to go to doc and have tests by my own self. Well the though which helped me was as we have a life hereafter so its not the end everything is not gloom. I started to go some charity raising events and meet people there when you see people who are struggling more than you do the way you think is changed. For uric acid reduce meat especially beaf pork and exercise

Hi

Pleased to hear you got the all clear from your cardiologist now you need to do the hard part and believe in those results.

I have had Gout it is painful but can be well treated and took about a week to get better for me.

Doctors can be a bit funny about prescribing a benzo but i'm sure if you say you have been using as prescribed that they will re consider their position.

Keep us posted.

Hi P_D,

I am sorry to hear of the continued anxiety struggles...

...but celebrate your good news regarding your cardio results! This is a good step in the right direction...and with continued time and practice, you will be able to accept this, and progress!

How is the self help/ therapy going? I hope you are continuing to your efforts with either or both. It takes time, but you will see the benefits happen with perseverance. :)

You are doing good things to manage your health...both physically and mentally. Keep up the good work, and know that things will get better for you.

There are happier times coming, be encouraged. :)
