I've had some health issues over the past fews years too, which is why I think my anxiety/panic has gotten so bad. I'm trying really hard to not let it stop me, but it's hard. Where I live you have...
I just recently started having issues with driving. It actually started a couple weeks ago when we were trying to drive up to a family cabin for vacation. It's about a 5 hour drive and my husband and...
Thanks for all the support everyone!...
I should probably just throw in there the chronic hives I've been getting for probably about 6 months now too....
I just need a place to vent. No one really needs to respond or comment, I'm just so sick these days and I feel like I have no one. I don't post on here much, but I don't have anywhere to go. Over the...
Well, most of the red bumps are gone today, so I'm guessing it is something in my house that I'm allergic to. I'll have to have my hubby wash a few things for me this weekend....
The only meds I am on is Prevacid once a day and a birth control pill. That's all I take. I've been on the Prevacid for a total of probably 5 months now with maybe a one month break. What's funny is...
Anyone ever ger random red bumps due to anxiety or stress? For the past couple of weeks I've been getting these red bumps mainly on my torso sides and slighty to the pelvic area. I get a few here and...
Is it normal to feel numb sometimes with anxiety? Last night, for no apparent reason my left index finger felt really numb. Almost like it was bruised, but I didn't see or feel a bruise on it. I...
Thanks everyone for giving me a place to vent my concerns and aggravations! I really appreciate the feedback that I get from all of you. I know we are all suffering from the same thing and it's good...
She did mention something about the sedatives being called "tranquilizers". It just made me nervous that she would suggest a sedative because of the fact that I stay home with my kids all day....
I have anxiety too. I am beginning to see that the symptoms I am having are not all that uncommon, but still scary. I think my anxiety started for a number of reasons and has gotten worse because I...
Thanks for your responses! Sorry it took so long to get back to you guys, I wasn't feeling very well yesterday. The doctor didn't tell me any specific medications, she just basically told me the two...
Hey everyone. I had my follow up appointment with my doctor last week, the follow up from my EGD. I opted not to take any anxiety meds because none of them seemed to suit me. One option was to take a...
Yea, I guess I just have to start putting my faith in the docs and believing that it's just anxiety and that they aren't overlooking something. I just worry because I have young children and I don't...
Hi Liz, Thanks for your response! I have been spending time reading other posts and have seen a lot of similar symptoms to mine. I wish no one had to go through it, but it makes me feel a little...
So.. I've had IBS for about 3 years now. It started after a D&C in 2004. I did a lot to try and calm it down. I tried more fiber (I have IBS-D), acidophilus, and even went to a GI who prescibed...
It's nice to have someone understand how I feel. I always feel like it could be something worse. It's probably just a combination of GERD, anxiety, acid reflux, allergies and stress, but it's so hard...
I've been having a lot of issues for about 5 months or so. I'm posting in this forum because what I've read on other posts sounds so similar to what I'm suffering with. I've had chest heaviness and...
I can totally relate... I'm 26 and feel like I'm becoming a hypochondriac too. Over the course of the last 3 months I've had everything from a heart attack to brain tumors to broken ribs. It's nuts....
Hi Shelly.. congratulations on expecting!! That's really great!! I too have IBS-D. I've had 2 babies since my IBS-D started. My diarrhea actually got better while I was pregnant, but after the babies...
So, I bought some Activia last night (yes, I'm going to take the 2 week challenge) and we'll see what happens. I don't mind it if I go more often, as long as it's not diarrhea. It's kind of weird the...
Thank you for the responses... that helps me out a lot!!! :-)...
I have IBS-D and I've had a few people tell me I should try that Activia yogurt from Dannon? But on the website it says it helps reduce long intestinal transit time. It seems like that would be more...
