Struggling

Hi . Feeling very very down at the moment . Over two things really one being in pain all the time . I had to stop taking my Omeprazole today and boy am i uncomfortable . It even woke me up at 11pm last night which lead to a wonderful packed night of panic attacks :( . Really down because of constant anxiety and being short of breathe so much . Its been four constant months now . I have had some good days but not that many unfortunately . I did actually see a doctor today on an emergency appointment and he was lovely . He said i could take the Omerprazole if its too much for me , get the hospiatl to tell HIM off if they say anything !!!! Whoah . He said to start taking the tablets i was prescribed a few weeks ago ( the citapram i was too chicken to take !) So i will start them in the morning wish me luck please . Just as a matter of interest has anyone taken these tablets ? Thanks for putting up with me today :)

Thanks Diva . You have no idea ( well you probaly do) how hard im trying to 'handle' this . Yet another blissful night , but now i feel poorly . Back to being unable to eat . And i am trying but just cant get anything down . Have forced 3/4 slice of toast and a spoonful of scrammbled egg and a banana today . Apart from not fancying anything at all im racking my brains to think of something thats easy and good to eat . Wondered if anyone had this problem and what did they find was best to nibble on ? ok back to concentrating on being posive before kiddies come home . Catch you later xx

Oh Michael and Diva thank-you so much for your help and kind words . Very touched . I will start to try that tommorrow Diva , pretty sure apart from the anxiety it must be something to do with my suspected Ulcer . Because even if i do manage a wee bit . It hurts like hell . Well was up all night with the biggest hugest panic attacks i have had ever . Was seriously frightened . But thought of all of you to get me through it . Now thats three nights without sleep . Went to pieces this afternoon . Just broke down in front of husband . A in pain (shaking really sets it off which sucks) B . So damn fed up with it . Well Husband called doctor and off i trotted with him . Told him all and said i know im nervous for next week etc . He said sure but he thinks its a bad reaction to the citalopram , he has seen it before !!!!!!!! So he has prescribed me another one i can take from saturday . An d i can take my much saved and hidden emergency diazapam if i get too bad . So will call that a result ! Will have to get back another time to read all your lovely peeps threads im too uncomfortable and starting to shake . So ta ta for now xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
