I’m tired of these doctors not taking me seriously. How long do I have to be sick for them to start believing me? It’s not all in my head. It’s all physical. I’ve been in hell. I’m tired of going to countless appointments. Tomorrow I have another to do a physical and EKG. Because they don’t believe based on PASSED results about my heart palpitations. I’m so frustrated.
Telling you girl it’s your thyroid I had symptoms for years before it even showed up on blood work ☹️ just keep having them run that test it’ll show up
they did the same to me for years I suffered like that 😒☹️ until it showed on bloodwork
@tribexofxfour, I’m it guna stop until I feel better. I know in my gut it isn’t my anxiety. I’ve never been like this before
Anxiety can present in physical ways we don’t expect or even think is possible. I use to manifest my anxiety physically. I would have chest pains, shortness of breath, pains in my arms. I would shake and at night I would wake up from the shaking. I knew something was wrong with me but after numerous tests and appointments it wasn’t. It was all my anxiety. We manifest a lot of things with our minds
Not saying it is this, but if it is, how did you get thru it? I’ve bebe sick so long I don’t know what I feel or believe anymore
a combination of therapy and medicine. Mind over matter techniques. I really really felt my best after having my first baby. After my second my anxiety came back but it wasn’t as bad because I used the techniques I was taught in therapy. Now after my third my anxiety hasn’t returned. For me hormones also played apart in it. Have you had yours checked? Do you remember when your anxiety of these issues started? I was in such a really really dark place about 8-9 years ago. I was at the point I was ready to commit myself for help. I was out of touch with reality. It was really bad.
@dontblockmesis-imjustspeakingfacts, I’ve always felt my best during my pregnancy and after having my children. The darkest place I’ve been was 3 years ago during my first miscarriage. Never went back. I’ve been in therapy off and on for 8 years and NEVER needed meds because it was always controlled with techniques. This is the worse it’s been. I’m sure being sick and the covid in the world contributing to it isn’t helping me.
People did this with my fiancé too. Don’t stop seeking answers . He kept telling hospitals , doctors etc that he constantly felt like he was having a heart attack and would get shooting pains in his arms and chest . People just pushed it off as anxiety. Now he has multiple appointments a week Since the end of February cause they’re finding out he actually has problems that can be severe 🙃 seek answers and don’t stop til you get them!
@lillylove Did you ask for the referral to the endocrinologist??? Your numbers indicated hyperthyroidism which can cause so much of this. Also, how old are you? Sadly many doctors will use age against you and miss a diagnosis if they think it's age or mind related.
no. I’ve talked to 3 different doctors about my levels and they all say that it’s nothing to worry about because my t3&t4 are normal. They won’t look further into it. Even when I said I feel like it could be the reason. Even with my family history. All she said was she wants me to retest in June 🙄
Ok, well wait until June. Remember my original answer to this was that the doctor would have you retest in 3-6 months if they weren't worried. But make sure you get to an endocrinologist. They are the specialist and would be able to explain how or if the results being only slightly off could have any affect on you and they would know to look at other possibilities that could work in conjunction with the Thyroid blood work. Also, what is your work out routine if you have one at all? That can help so much!!! If you don't have one let's start you on one and see if it helps you feel better after a few weeks.
I haven't read any of your other posts, what about seeing a hormone specialist. I feel like a lot of times general doctors say levels are fine but then you go see a specialist for your targeted issue and they are like no, everything is not fine. Good luck with your journey.
I didn’t even know there was such a thing as a hormone doctor. I did get my BC taken out recently because the hormones from it made me worse and hubby and I agreed we are done with children so he’s guna get snipped. So my BC was useless.
Have you had your vitamin levels checked recently? Deficiencies can cause a lot of problems. I was always tired, anxious, digestive issues, getting sick a lot.. turns out my vit D was low. Get a vitamin/hormone panel done.
@lillylove, yes, you should ask. They don’t routinely test vitamin/hormone levels.
@xryztalroze, I’ve gotten cbc blood drawn and everything was fine. I’ve actually done it twice. I’ve been trying to keep myself as hydrated as I can. Along with water, I’ve been drinking this “drip drop” drink one of the doctors supplied me with for extra electrolytes
I have anxiety and it does cause physical problems. Especially if you are constantly thinking about it. I thought I was having a heart attack because of how my heart was acting. I had heart palpitations really bad. Especially when I was worrying.
That’s the weird part. My anxiety hasn’t bothered me. I’m so focused on getting physically better than I haven’t been thinking about it mentally. I know I have low potassium and that could be the reason for the palpitations and tremors. I’m just getting so tired. It’s been so long.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
What your favorite physical attribute? Like what do u think is the best part of yourself? For me it’s my arms and legs. My arms are cut and I have nice muscular arms, but not too muscular, and my legs I’ve always had nice long legs. So what’s yours?
Short Luteal Phase? I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
ladies I do believe we have a fake 😒
My first B.B. crushing on me I feel so honored to have someone say i was their B.B. crush!! It’s my first so I’m feeling pretty darn good about myself right now!! That is all. Needed to get that out there before and if this app closes down!! That’s all carry on hahahaha
