Awful fear of Hospitals & hip replacement

Hi I am going through the mill at the moment, I just wish I was not having to go into hospital as I am soooooooooooooo scared. Its seems to me as really NO ONE really understands what Anxiety does to poeople., Some people are anxious, and others are not bothered. But hello I am a person who really suffers from acute Anxiety. I am also a carer, so have to make sure that everything is in order for my Disabled Husband.I feel, shakey in side, red throat as I am trying to get rid of a cold. awful sleep problems.Tearful. regards amandah

I know hun I used to run to er and doctors all most everyday I thought was and still is something that they can't Figure out,and no one understands that you are desperate and miserable inside. Now is been almost three years still think something is and will drop dead but I don't go to doc what will happen it will so I did everything I could.relax don't think negative thoughts take it day by day don't miss out opportunities in life they come only ones.right now I have shooting pain in my head and my mind is all over but I'm not going or call anyone.take care and be strong

Only just read your post.but rang a Bell with me .

It could have been me writing.I'm not having Hip replacement,but a Dental appointment in 2 weeks time.people don't understand why I'm so scared,as I 'm paying to be Sedated.But I have never been Sedated for anything before,and can't cancel,coz I have Dental Phobia .this is ruining my life.Just strted on Anti depressants,but feel worse.and can't stop shaking and can't eat because of my Nerves.know how you feel,
