Please hold my hand through second jab!

So after making many threads adamant I wasn't going to have the second jab, I went ahead and did it tonight and am feeling super scared. I will document how I feel. Feeling super scared and I know I will for 3 weeks. Any support is welcome.

So I had a major **ing wobble yesterday. Weird eye pain and headache and started to see white. Cue panic and a full on panic attack leading me to think I was going to die that minute. Ended up in a and e where they ran bloods and said definitely no clots. The whole ordeal took 5 hours to calm down. The drs said all vitals are good, platelets good so not concerned. Didn't help though that I still felt like absolute crap. Thankfully today a little better but not 100 percent. First dr said it could be the body adjusting to the jab and the other dr said it's anxiety. To a more annoying note my urea was a bit high and neutrophils which they said was borderline and of not significance, not even a follow up. They insisted my bloods were very healthy but Ofcourse now I'm going to shit it until they are retested (requested by me). *@bumblenbean* how are you feeling now? I still don't regret the jab though but this anxiety is horrible horrible horrible. I've never had a panic attack before and I really hope this isn't the start.

My anxiety sometimes manifests physically exactly as you describe. Absolutely the right thing to get checked out though, I'm glad they were thorough. Not something asking you to answer, but if you aren't already taking any, medication changed my life in terms of managing my anxiety.

@Peppapeg I did take sertraline for around 9 months which did wonders. I took it more for my thoughts though as I have never really been a panic attack type sufferer. Though the medication helped me care less, it didn't stop the thoughts. On top of that I gained 10 kilos with it which was a killer to get rid of. I don't really want to go down that lane again but ofcourse if things get really bad (I hope I can nip it in the bud) then I will. Sending support to you, it's horrible when you're having the attack
