I know the feeling of wanting to say everything hang in there and be strong, it's good to talk about your problems im here if you need anything. 😁😃
Really feel for you! Just take each day as it comes and just try and take some sort of positive from a rubbish situation! I've had this awfull anxiety for 15 years and there's lots of up and down! I had awfull heart palps for 4 months solid felt awfull every day! But one day I woke up and they completely stopped! That could be you tomorrow! So hang in there I'm sure things will improve 😊 take care and we only a text away! Simon
No not yet but doc said he would give me more info on therapy when im back in on Monday 
Thanks, I always think its good to talk on this site as people understand how your feeling
Thank you for your kind words, wow 15 years is such a long time, are you on any meds or therapy?I would love to wake up tomorrow and all this to be GONE, take care x
Awwww you poor thing ... I have been suffering from Gastritis/dyspepsia and been treated for H Pylori infection. I have also been suffering from anxiety with panic attacks, fast beating heart and palpitations. I am now beginning to think has the gastritis got something to do with the anxiety ! since having the gastritis I have also been getting shooting pains in the side of my neck and throat hurting me, and also a sharp pain shooting in my right arm. It is so horrible. Know how you feel and how nasty it is. Hope you feel better soon
Yes you can take it, and you will get better. And you will be happier. The hospital want to discuss results from your heart monitor. That's good -they are looking after you. If there's something wrong, you will get help. My mum had all those tests, she had a heart condition, got medication and lived to be 80 plus, which is not bad at all. And she enjoyed her later years and was active. As another person said palpitations can just go. Mine did (touch wood lol). Gastritis is very treatable too. I have it, and I know lots of folk on pills for it. incidentally if I eat something that doesnt agree with my stomach i can get palpitations. The body plays up , very badly for some folk, but there is still fun to be had, if you learn to live with and cope with problems. Its depressing I know, and sometimes you think, I am soo unlucky, I really dont want to live with all this pain, but the truth is the human being has a great capacity for getting through. please, it won't be for ever. Dont give up. sending you loving wishes. Anne
Yes been on 20mg of citilapram on and off for 15 years keep thinking I can do life without them, then each time I come off them i without noticing it myself I turn into a bit of a misery arse its only the misses that notices it! So decided to stay on them now as I'm now a lovely fella!😇 I haven't had any panic attacks for a long time all I get now is the unexplained pains in my tummy back and so on but can live with that as several years ago I was an absolute mess with every symptom going so there is hope things defo improve with time!😜
tina, always remember to get new symptoms checked out. your throat could be acid reflux, i think?(not a doc0 but always check. when you have a lot of things wrong, you tend to not want to bother the doctor, at least that's how I feel, but i still trundle along with anything new lol. The gastritis could be caused by anxiety, yes.
Ty for your reply Anne. I know its true what you are saying, I go to the dr's and tell them the main thing even though there is so much more going on. Then I think I will tell the dr next time and then something else happens. Yes the gastritis could be caused from anxiety I do think it is part that but also after being treated for H Pylori x
Ha ha mr misery arse, glad things are working out for you, are there many side effects to the citilapram?know how you feel with aches and pains I think I should be put down x
Hi Tina I have just finished antibiotics etc for H pylori, hope you are feeling better, lifes a bitch at times eh?take care x
Life sure does suck sometimes. But not for everyone, so unfair, but no one ever said it would be fair. Scott Peck in his book, The Road less Travelled started the book with this declaration - that life is unfair, and said you had to accept that as your starting point before you could get on with living. Sounds depressing but its not really ,just fact.. Hope you are feeling ok at this minutex
Do not be sorry. Venting always helps me. I'm in a bad way so I don't know if my comments will be helpful... Gastritis has been a real problem for me in the past. Whenever I feel it coming on I start to take my Nexium. 20mg. There's no real side effects the only thing is I would forget take it. Maybe u could give it a try : ,)
do you experience gastritis attacks? It was horrible for me so I hope it gets better for you. It did for me. Don't give up
Hey Ashley, sorry to hear your not so good just now, im on omeprosol 20mg daily which help a bit, ye the attacks come on from nowhere and are painful and horrible , glad its got better for you as I know it will for me, it just seems to be when you start to get one thing under control something else appears, anyway w3 will all get better sooner or later, take care chic x
The attacks are one of the worst things I've experienced. The only thing that cured it for me was buscopan and Morph. I still don't know why they occurred. But I was extremely stressed at the time, all the best
Hi hun,
Do you feel better now you have finished the treatment for the H pylori ? I was put on Lansoprazole a week after my treatment finished and I took it for 8 wk's, I stopped them four days ago, my head feels clearer and the headaches are much better also the trembles are better and palpitations are less, Im sure it was the Lansoprazole giving me these side effects. The gastritis hasn't gone, I have been getting the pain going up to my neck and to of chest and on and off at the top of my stomach.. I am being strict with my diet and have started taking a course of tablets you chew to replace all the good bacteria in the gut, you chew two after breakfast every morning, so I will see how it goes, I hope it gets better, just want to get back to my old self again xxx
Hey chic, I do feel better but having massive problems sleeping which is horrendous, gastritis is a nightmare as well, ive been watching what im eating and hope that helps, take care and look after yourself and im sure we will be back to our old selves soon xx
