I occasionally feel that way too. But I really think that if we have a true medical emergency, the symptoms will be slightly different. Plus, I figure if I'm having a medical emergency that my medication won't take it away, then I would call 911. But I admit, this isn't something I worry too much about because I have a great faith in God and I don't worry about death much. My bigger fear is being in great pain.

We all know how scary having a panic attack can be... that feeling like something is horribly wrong and you might die. I've learned to some degree to disregard it when I feel like something is wrong and tell myself "It's just another panic attack, you aren't going to die." But what if it's not? What if, at some point, I really AM sick and need to go to a hospital but I disregard it as a panic attack? I can't possibly go to the hospital every time something doesn't feel right, because I would be in the emergency room several times a week. Does anyone else worry that they are desensitizing themselves to their body's responses because we are cursed with a mental condition that makes our brain tell us something is wrong even when it isn't? It's a "boy who cried wolf" problem, and I'm afraid at some point it will be disasterous....
