I got health anxiety in the summer after complications from a surgery. After that I have never been the same. I was getting constant panic attacks and I was sure it was a heart problem. I ran to the ER like SEVEN times between June-July. I went to the cardiologist got an echo, 24 hr heart monitor, stress test, chest CT etc. Nothing. But I’m STILL anxious about my heart. Fast forward almost seven months and I’m having a bad anxiety flare up, ended in the ER once more with a racing heart. He basically told me to go home and take a shower to calm down. Since that weekend I’ve felt boaty(not quite dizzy but just off balance) and today I’ve felt short of breath. It’s like I have to consciously breath or I get scared. It just feels like not enough air is going through my nose. I need some words of encouragement, I don’t want to end up in the ER and sent back home. I already made an appointment with another cardiologist for March to double check. 😪 I’m so exhausted of being scared
