Birmingham, Alabama!...
Cilly, I know what you're going through, but if you've broken something, you have to see a doctor! They can help you :)...
I'm a 25-year-old female in good health. I've had a stress test, EKG, and echo, which were all normal. I have PVCs which were diagnosed thanks to a holter monitor. I thought taking beta blockers...
SC, you're the best. :)...
A myocardial infarction is a heart attack. EKGs are silly sometimes. They just go with the easiest route. I have had one say that too and I'm 25! Luckily you have not had one, so breathe a sigh of...
That's a good one! Thanks!...
I know, and I get it! Last night I noticed one of my pupils was bigger than the other and barely slept because I was certain I was having a stroke. I'm a healthy 25-year-old female! I know it's...
York, You sound just like all of us. I have so been there and been absolutely certain I was dying. I work at a doctor's office and trust me, if your GP thought it was prostate cancer, they would have...
It can't hurt to wake him, even if it'll just make you feel better. How old are you? Have you ever seen a cardiologist? Do you have Aspirin handy?...
This makes so much sense. My parents were NEVER abusive. Never. I never even so much as got spanked. BUT, my mother was an alcoholic as I was growing up, and there was some pretty serious emotional...
Hi presencegirl! Do you mind if I ask you what medications you take for your anxiety, if any? Do you see a psychatrist or a therapist? If not, I would highly recommend it. I still have my moments...
Thanks so much for the responses, guys! I always feel so much better even after just typing it out on here. Just to be able to connect with people who understand and have been through it and are...
Thanks, y'all! SC, I have checked some of those out previously and some of them really do seem to help, so thank you so much! I also want to do CBT, but my co-pay to see a therapist is $50. Ugh....
My head starts hurting, it's a brain aneurysm. I have PVCs (even though they were deemed benign by my cardiologist), it's a heart attack. My hand goes numb, it's a stroke. I'm nauseated, it's a...
I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME THING RIGHT NOW. Woke up and I've been convinced I'm having a heart attack for like an hour. It's miserable and all I want to do is call 911, but I know that's not helpful....
You are definitely not alone! I am currently in the throes of a near panic attack.. Woke up and was convinced that I'm having a heart attack. It WILL get better. We just have to remind ourselves that...
Keep your head up, Rich! Everything will be okay. When I'm feeling lonely, I head to my local bookstore and cozy up with a good book, or take my laptop to the nearest coffee shop and just write down...
Deborah, about two months....
Sometimes I think I'm going crazy. Other times I know I am. I'm 25 and started having PVCs years ago. Back when anxiety wasn't a part of my life at all, I just ignored them. I can actually remember...
*dense, not sense. Silly autocorrect....
Janet, Don't worry too much. I know that is way easier said than done, but I work at a doctor's office and most of the time it's just sense breast tissue. That being said, I totally understand why...
