 Me again, I can't even think straight any more - constant headaches, such fatigue, weak and wobbly, anxiety and health anxiety, earache making me think brain tumor, oh God its hell. Can't sleep with heart thumping, ringing ears, face ache, bone ache. Doctors don't care - tried supplements, loads of water, stomach problems panic attacks, weird spaced out all the time - sick of this day in day out same old. Had a gut full of this am I ever ever ever gonna feel any better, so depressing just existing .

      That's great that you sleep well I wish I could - I think my problem with that is health anxiety always thinking there's something else going on, just finding it hard to move on from all that happened. Did you have CT scans and marker blood tests ? I did and all was fine thank god x

    Oh as i read your words i really do feel for you. It is awful day in day out, i know, and just hoping tomorrow youll feel a little bit normal , and  don't.. Almost like you are half empty prob because of running on half empty. I hope you can get some support and help from your gp. Have you tried HRT ? i was adamant i wasn't going to but i am so miserable being like this i am seeing my gp next week to try this x

      Thank you very much Julie - I feel like demanding HRT as feeling like this how can anything be worse, I feel like I will take the risks and just do it if I can. Are you in surgical menopause aswell ? Yes running half empty completley, like a flipping zombie and look like one too, pale and totally exhausted, I actually look like I have no blood in my body im so white and shallow looking, I look a mess - wrecked and worn out like an old washed out grey rag x

    Hi

    I know exactly how you are feeling.

    I have all the symptoms you have I think.

    I have had headaches and neck pain constant for 3 months. Depressed,feeling worthless and anxiety through the roof. Feeling frightened. Terrible acid rely, burning mouth syndrome which is awful. All my face aches and buzzes and my jaw is stuff. A bottom sensitive tooth ache. Tinnitus so loud. Sweats coming on which causes panic. Palpitations and heart problems. Sinus problems -you name it. You feel alone and not in this world and don't want to be here.Hugs.

      Hi Michelle, I know - I absoloutley don't want this hideous nightmare anymore - im the same tinnitus , itchy ears, itchy face I want to rip my face off, all in my nose and jaw like you. Panic attack this morning and violently sick with fear, thinking brain tumor - every single thing is distressing me so much I have the shakes aswell with the anxiety of it all. Yes I feel alone depressed, miserable and the palpitations from hell making me think I'm just Gonna die - it's just so so bloody horrible 😰 xx

      Lou, we are in the same boat this morning. Anxiety is just dreadful for me. Im also getting the nausea and loss of appetite back. It  really does make you feel alone, but just know we are here. Thank God for this forum!

      I know not everyone responds to the same thing, but I can't take an antidepressant, but found Rhodiola Rosea is helping me a bit. Im new to taking it, but as it builds in my system, its supposed to help with our emotional symptoms. Please look it up on Amazon. I read the reviews and thats what made me try it. Hugs and hope you feel better
