Terrified!

Hello Rosy. My GI doc was very nice and understanding of my high anxiety. I explained my very odd symptoms to him and he was not looking as if it were a big deal. He said that it could be dyspepsia or gastritis. I Don't have pain just odd sensations in my stomach that I've never experienced before. The one symptom that has given me panic attacks is my tight stomach muscles. Whenever I talk or move around too much my stomach muscles starts to clam up...like a rubber band tightening up. I have an appointment for my colonoscopy on May 16 in the morning and I will have an endoscopy if my stomach issues aren't resolved. He wants me to continue talking Omeprazole for the next three weeks and if my stomach issues hasn't improved he'll schedule an endoscopy. My nerves are a lot better right now and I want to trust his opinion. I did ask him if he thought it was cancer and he said no. Thanks for caring. Have a wonderful rest of your week
I did! Thanks for caring. I have a colonoscopy scheduled for next month and if my stomach issues aren't resolved the GI doc will schedule an endoscopy. I hope my stomach gets better...don't like feeling the way that I do. Have a wonderful rest of your week...
At least the cancer scare is gone. I've always found that anxiety and stomach problems go hand in hand. If my stomach starts to act up it is either something going around or anxiety and it is usually the anxiety. Never hurts to have the tests done. Glad the dr. appmt. went well.
You're right about that! I want to work on my mental health this year.
