Got a doctor visit tomorrow - I've been having stomach problems (burning stomach, bloating, severe nausea, gagging, trouble swallowing) off and on for a month and it's really affecting my life. But I'm anxious. What if it's cancer? What if it's something else serious? Etc. You all know the drill. As always, during stressful times in my life, my HA dials it up to 11. I just want to enjoy the holiday season while I can, dang it. Hope my dr has a quick fix for the symptoms at least.

Hey Mollyfin, are you from Anxiety Zone? I seem to remember that user name.

Anyways, you will be fine. I’m sure the answer will be anxiety and you will have to find acceptance and peace with that answer. Trust them and go to the next step at addressing how you can get over that hurdle.

Good luck and report back!

Yep, I am! From there to Anxiety Central, now here!

Thanks guys - I know I'm worrying over something I can't control and it's pointless. I get automatically nervous before I see the doctor, even if I'm not actually worried about anything at the moment! I'm really hoping that it won't be something that requires further/in depth testing, because I'm just so tired of all that by now, but the sooner I know what it is, the sooner I can hopefully stop having heartburn that engulfs my entire body!
