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 😞

You are being looked after and that is important @BlueBay - hopefully they will not let you go home until you are more stable and pain free. Hugs and hugs

Re: not feeling good

I am so glad you are in hospital and being looked after @BlueBay - I think you have needed this for a long time - you have been battling and battling and it all mounts up

Whatever is causing the dizziness and pain means you need to stay in bed - and I am glad that is happening -

Hospitals are not fun but at least you can be nutured for a few days - I hope that pain settles with the strong pain medication and you can get some sleep

This rest is obviously what you need - sending my best thoughts

Re: not feeling good

Awww @BlueBay, I am so sorry you're in such pain and distress with your health. As others here have already said, you are in the right place. Allow them to take care of you and get the BP and pain under control. Dont push to get home too soon. Now is the perfect time to get this all sorted. Hopefully that will happen quickly. Rest and let them take care of you at the hospital. I, and many others here, will be thinking of you and willing you well.

Sherry 🤗🌺💐💕

Hi @Shaz51@Former-Member@Owlunar@Zoe7@outlander @Faith-and-Hope

thanks for all your support.

Well I’m still in. Feeling dizzy. The cardiologist stopped the med he started last night. I am to stsy in bed. Even just going to the bathroom is an effort. He thought I could go home this afternoon but now it could possibly be tomorrow. My blood pressure is dropping too much hence the dizziness and headache.

Feeling nauseous as well because of a strong psin med they gave me last night gir my leg. I didn’t know but my nurse I have tonight explained it to me.

Im getting plenty of sleep and rest which is good. This is such a nice hospital. Very kind caring and sympathetic staff Cannot fsult this unit. I was thinking I will write a letter for feedback. From staff in emergency to the cardiac unit have all been fantastic. Nothing like the public hospital.

Hope you are all doing ok. Chst sgsin soon.

BB ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks for letting us know BB - and despite everything not being stable yet you are sounding positive - so good to hear both that and that you are getting great care. Stay there as long as you need to get better - it will help also that you arem sleeping @BlueBay. Love and hugs coming your way my beautiful yellow flower

Re: not feeling good

Just had a huge meltdown with my nurse. He just sat next to me and listened. I sobbed and let it all out he suggested he call the psych who works here to come snd see me tomorrow. I kniw this psych he’s not mine but he knows me.

I cant believe where all the tears came from. Omg it was terrible. Told him I was wasting his tine thst I’m not string to whuch he denied.

I now feel sick. He decided out of interest if my blood pressure was up and of course it was. I’m mentally drained. He will give me a tab to sleep tonight and he is going to call my cardiologist now and speak to him.

He told me he was going to get me an icy pole to cheer me. He is so kind and empathetic. Sat with me for at least 15 mins.

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay It sounds like you are

being taken very well cared of. I’m so sorry you have been unwell. It must be very distressing having a meltdown, but I’m often told by my councilor that it is actually a step forward.

I have gone away with the family for a holiday - it’s extrememly hot here, had to sit beside the pool with my good leg dangling to try and cool down yesterday - today I took myself to hossie and had the cast cut off (1 day early) and spent the rest of the day IN the pool, so much more comfortable.

Im glad you are seeing the psych there tomorrow, even if it’s not your own. As hard as it is to speak to someone new, a problem shared is a problem halved. Your body is holding onto so much grief, anger and stress that it’s coming out now in pain. It’s hard, but it’s healing. I think of you often, we have so many similarities and I feel your hurt too. We didn’t deserve this - but we do deserve the help, I hope you can accept it. ❤️❤️

Thank you all fir your love support and kind words. Just an update :

last night the cardiologist called in unexpectedly to see how I was. I suspect the caring nurse called him. He told me thst he rang my own psych and he will come in this mirning to see me. So I don’t have to worry about seeing someone else.

Not sure now if I’m going home. We will see.
