feeling very scared

My gp is sending me to a pain specialist i do not know what to expected from. I hate going to hospitals  as i have been in and out of them since 2005 i have realy had enough what happens if he carnt help or he said that my condision is worse then my gp thought ( my appontment is october15th)  it will be bad enough going but the date i have to go is my mother-in-laws birthday and we have just recently lost her  so it not one of the best days but my gp has told me i must go no matter what i am in such a muddle and scared

take a deep breath and calm yourself . make a list so you can see clearly what you have to do and when , put  a star in a red pen for important  and blue for not so important , and do whats right for you .

you are describing anxety and panic because its all seems overwhelming if you do what i suggest  it gives you back control . also try a using a relaxtion cd twice a day when you can.  good luck tina.

Thanku for  the advice i will give it a try. But i dont own a relaxtion cd at the moment i am going to get one though when i get the money togrther . You see i do not get alot of money i only get incomesuport for myself husdand and youngest daughter and i also get DLA but the hightest amont gose to pay for my powerchair to help get me out and about but i am looking in to getting some cds hun thanks again

Oh Shirley I'm sorry for your loss and how those dates relate. I have just today been told I need to see a pain specialist as well not for my fibro but for a pain I am having in my common bile duct area. I am a strong woman of faith and know God has all this and more in control I just wish He would show the drs what is hurting sooner than later. I don't know if you are a woman of faith but never forget God loves you. I will pray for you as that day approaches. God Bless.

Hi I have just come back from the pain specialist today and it went well. Nothing to be scared of, I was very worked up about going but I became fine while I was there. Take a deep breath and go, I can see that it's going to be a hard day but you need to do this for the sake of your health. Myself I have been in and out of hospitals for ten years too, so know the feeling. Will be here if you need to post a note to talk x

Thanks hun. The reason why i am scard i have been to see 1 pain specialist and he didnt listen to a word i had to say and when i told him my husdand took care of me and did all the house work ( cooking cleanning) he was so descustid as though to say i should be doing it all and my husdand should'nt be. So i rang the hospital up and conplaned about him so they have given me an appontment for this other specilist i am worried if hes going to be anything like him hun
