In one of my recent posts, I was explaining my stress about a letter I got in the mail.
It said: Doctor has asked us to contact you regarding your results. Could you please ring this surgery to arrange an appointment.
I rang the surgery because I was stressing out about getting that letter. And the receptionist told me it was "non-urgent so please do not stress." But I stressed and started overthinking about it anyway because I wasn't used to getting a letter before.
Whilst being unwell, the pattern was always the same.
See doctor, do test/s, book appointment online to see doctor then see my doctor.
So getting a letter made me think something was picked up with my heart.
Anyway, I had an appointment with my doctor, but it was quite a wait, and I couldn't take it so I booked an appointment with another doctor who I have seen before and she told me my results were fine. Big relief! She was also confused why I got a letter and wondered if my doctor was just wanting to touch base to get the ball rolling on me seeing a psychologist.
I had my appointment on Tuesday with my doctor who was also confused with the letter I got because she never asked that to be done. She said there has been new nurses working there and they must have taken it upon themselves to do that. She felt bad it worked me up because she knows I'm suffering quite badly with this health stress.
She wants me to try this new medication to hopefully calm my brain and wants me to see a psychologist. I am happy my heart is fine! I am happy everything has actually been fine. But I am sad my brain seems to not be so fine. I mean health wise it's fine! But from what my doctor said, this disorder / health anxiety thing could be both from the stress I dealt with last year and the stressful situations I've been in throughout my whole life. As if it just all caught up with me and caused havoc in my mind and body.
Anyway, that's the update there. Thank you kindly for reading. Hope you're all good. Will be back on later.

I didn't think you were as sick as you were making it sound
it's just your letting your mind override your body's health.
So now you can put all your fears on the back burner &
start living your life as you have been denying yourself of.
If you keep going like your doing it will knock you down
& you may not come back from it that's why I don't let
things get to me like most folks do cause it will effect you.
I'm SUPER happy to hear your health is in tack & good
heart & health you just have to train your mind to STOP
playing games on you, it's time to live life you deserve.

@2ndchances24 Thank you very kindly.
The sickness and sensations I've felt / been feeling have always been real. But yes it is likely from a long time of stress my body reacted and caused a lot of sickness / sensations, but they were all real.
I'm no longer scared that something is wrong with my brain / heart / stomach etc But having a disorder makes it harder for me to just "get back to it." I'm happy to be healthy but it's not over yet I'm afraid. 
I have things to do and support coming my way to help me manage my disorder.

@VivaLaDani13 if you go to a therapist they will help
with the issues your dealing with & get you back on track.

what kind of medication exactly, relaxing pills or? i think psychologist is a good idea; you can finally open to someone about your hardships. also, glad that results are okay and the new nurses, ah, they emphasized things. always with new people
