Can anyone relate to this?
Its like an addiction/OCD.
I’ve been told by several GP’s everything in this particular area feels ‘normal’ BUT….. because I still feel sensations in this area, my attention is still fixed on it and still causing me to touch just to make sure there’s nothing going on that might need attention.
This has been the case for over a year now.
I’m asking for some words of wisdom please from somebody who has managed to overcome this checking/scanning a certain part of their bod? Comparing sides etc.
I’m going on holiday soon and I don’t want my HA to wreck it. It’s been years since I’ve been away.
The area I’m talking about causes sensations most days and I’ve had it checked many many times but my brain will not accept that I’m okay. I think it’s because I haven’t been given a definitive answer as to what’s causing it. Could be hormonal, could be muscular. All I know is, they say it feels normal.
I’ve had this sensation for over a year now. So if it was anything sinister, I would have had other issues pop up. That’s my logical brain talking. But 90% if the time I’m living in fear even though I’ve been told everything feels fine in that area.
Just upped Prozac from 40mg to 60mg a week ago.
Tried therapy, no help.
Thanks in advance
Any of you find that 200mg has helped with anxiety and low mood?
I’ve recently upped from 100 to 200 and hoping for some good feedback. I appreciate it can make a lot of ladies feel depressed.
Im also on 2 pumps of Gel every morning. Thanks
From time to time this comes along, like when I have tender breasts, like it radiates to my arm pits? No swelling or anything. Feels swollen but isn’t swollen if that makes sense. Anyone else?
Recent mammo and ultrasound all good. Many docs have checked my armpits and everything is normal in that area.
Hello ladies
Anybody out there get tender armpits from tender breasts? It’s not painful or anything and doesn’t really bother me as such, just wanted to see if others get this.?
Recent mammo and ultrasound all normal. Also been examined by a breast consultant and she says is due to menopause/HRT? In fact two breast consultants have checked me over and said I’m fine.
I have a habit that is destroying my life and that is body checking.
Just to give you an example I had a follow up ENT appt recently due to something benign in the back of my throat….. a small tonsil stone/cyst.
She said everything looks fine (not concerning) and I can just leave it alone if that suits me. Everything else looks normal in that area and I’m fine to come back in 6 months to check the benign cyst.
Here’s the thing….. when I got home I noticed something else in the same sort of area that was only a small white spot and it sent me off on a spiral again! Did she it, is she a reliable ENT?
What I’m saying is, I’m now doubting the specialists. And I’m a trusting person, I don’t want to go looking for problems but I just can’t help it.
I’m getting to the stage where I think I need to stop looking full stop. Because every time I go nosing around I find something that scares me.
Been on 40mg for months and was feeling ok.
Doctor changed my capsules to 1 40mg per day and I thought they were still 20’s so I was taking x 2 totalling 80 🙃 This was the case for about 6 days.
I wonder why I felt so bad, I was thinking they weren’t helping me anymore as I felt awfully down and anxious. Anyone else been through this?
Thanks
