Sudden sense of impending doom

[IntoTheRoses]

It's really weirded me out. Just randomly got hit by this feeling of impending doom. Like a really anxious sinking feeling in my stomach and my brain just feeling, well, doomy? Never suddenly felt like this before!

Oh bless you. I had heard of this with anaphylaxis and experienced it when I injured myself (falling off a bike) on a hot day. I had heatstroke.
It's horrible.
So glad you are getting help. Take it easy.

So thankful you took this seriously. I’ve had ectopic x 2 but so grateful to be now driven crazy by my 3 healthy children. Ectopic are such sneaky bastards / my first I had zero pain even though I was bleeding internally and lost a tube as a result. Emotionally you may be all over the place. If you want any additional support feel free to message me.

Oh my goodness OP. I hope you are ok, terrifying.

This is the second thread I've read where's MNers correctly diagnosed a life threatening condition. The wealth of knowledge here is massive. Well done, everyone

Glad you're ok OP! well done Mumsnet

Unusually for me I checked back on this thread as I was so concerned and I am so glad you posted, and heeded the advice.

And so sorry for your loss and hope they are looking after you well.

Mumsnet at its very best, looking after each other.

Glad you’re okay and that you took advice. 💐

Oh goodness I'm so glad you got help. Sorry about your loss, hope you heal quickly. take care .

@IntoTheRoses I'm so so pleased that you didn't listen to your 'D'H! And very glad that you've been treated.

Poor you, I'm so sorry for your loss. So glad you got help wishing you better very soon.

Wow that's really odd. Most people would get abdominal pain, but how strange your body reacted like this, and just as well.

So so glad to hear you got help and are safe

It’s not odd at all, OP had quite typical ectopic pregnancy symptoms as many PP pointed out before she updated

Thank goodness you got checked out op.

Glad you took it seriously

Gosh, I was hoping to read an update saying it was nothing. I'm so glad you went to hospital, and hope you're better soon
Well done MNers.

So glad you got help

So glad you are ok!

Wow- OP- I’m sorry about your ectopic, I think you said upthread that you were trying? My DM had one when I was 17, and her symptoms were just like yours. It’s a hugely physically (and can be emotionally) traumatic experience- I hope you’re taking good care of yourself

Can this also please be a warning to mumsnetters to NEVER tell or insinuate to someone with symptoms of serious physical illness or indeed any medical concerns that “it’s nothing”? “Textbook anxiety” etc? It’s so bloody dangerous.

[quote Moonflower12]@Vinosaurus I had it too. Just before my PE. That's what made my DP realise how ill I was.

OP, glad you're getting sorted. The shoulder pain gave it away as ectopic to me. [/quote]
You're lucky - I woke my husband up who told me (like many on this thread would have it seems) that it was just a panic attack and to go back to sleep, wouldn't phone 111 or even give me the phone to call them myself (couldn't walk as was in a cast from hip to knee after an op) until I literally screamed at him.

How are you OP?

*Hip to toe - that would have been an odd cast!

Just checked in- wow thank goodness you posted on MN - hope you're home and doing ok OP xx

Watching intently. I get this a lot, I try and rationalise it and it seems to subside.

@Historydweeb have you RTFT?!
