not feeling good

not feeling good

At the moment i am not feeling good. i feel like my body is in 'run away mode'. i feel my body is running on a high, my head is so mixed up. i have to go to bed and try to sleep, but don't know if i can.

my hormones are everywhere at the moment; my mood is sky high negative. i can't deal with this anymre. all of a sudden i am not feeling good. i think it is anxiety.

i don't know why i feel like this; i just want to cry but can't becsue everyone is home. i am going to bed. i don't know what is going on. actually maybe it is anxiety because i felt like passing out today.

I went to my GP to have my mirena IUD taken out as I had had enough. But he couldn't find the string, so he sent me for a ultrasound. Had that and the guy said i had two fibroids and a cyst on my ovary. but he couldn't find the string either, so had to have an xray to find the metal piece. they didn't tell me anything. but while waiting i was so anxious i almost passed out.

so now i have to wait for tomorrow when my GP will call me at work and let me know what will happen now. hopefully he can take the mirena out. i don't know.

my body is reacting to my anxiety - i feel so shaky, i need to stop. no point telling anyone at home becasue (a) they won't believe me and (b) they prob wouldn't care.

sorry, i had to tell someone. i feel so alone 😞

Re: not feeling good

Hi @Former-Member @Zoe7

No, the clinician didn't give me any tips. I guess I will call them again if i need to tomorrow. I did manage to have a sleep. Cuddled into my blanket and fell asleep. My hubby is home from work now so we even go for a walk down the beach or sit outside on our deck.

I will telll him about the side effects from the meds.

i will let you know how i go later on. Thank you both for your help and @Zoe7 for being by my side. You are so kind to me, thanks heaps.

Think that sleep did help a little even though i am still really really tired.

There are no friends that are home all work, can't go anywhere to stay. I will use Lifeline if i have to or call the CAT team again.

But i will come on here too and let you know how i am going.

I am scared about the next 2 days; i may need some extra support.

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay do call them again tomorrow if you need to - even if you need to today!

So pleased that you had a sleep - keep that blanket close and cuddle into it whenever you need to

Do tell your hubby about the side effects and walk at the beach or sit on the deck - sounds like very good ideas.

Try not to focus ahead on the next two days - just continue to focus on the moment you are in. I will be around for the next few days and will continue to check in on you. Keep me updated and know I truly believe you have the strength within you to get through this tough time. I will be here for you and I will continue to walk alongside you, be thinking about you and supporting you in any way I can. You can do this my friend

Hi @Shaz51 @Zoe7
I'm ok for this moment. Struggling to get my head around next few days but I'm trying not to think about it. I'm actually feeling light headed don't know it's a side effect. Damn I hate medications.

Re: not feeling good

Hey @Zoe7

The problem is that I don't see myself as 'strong' - not at all.

I feel so overwhelmed and vulnerable. I feel fragile again and not good physically. I think if tomorrow I;m not good I will call my GP and see what he suggests. Or the ambulance. I just wish i was back in hospital and monitored properly.

How are you? What are you up to?
