Falling apart....just need to let it out

[WutheringFrights]

I’m just after a bit of a hand hold really as I think I’m being a bit melodramatic but I feel utterly pants!
I have a history of pneumonia, pleurisy, asthma generally anything lung based is a bit shit!
Over the past six weeks I have had an on and off sharp stabbing pain in my right chest radiating through to my shoulder blade.
This week I’ve had a weird full / numb feeling in the lower part of my right lung / rib cage, yesterday I started getting breathless and this morning started coughing.
I am exhausted, I just want to sleep and when I wake up everything to feel better but it doesn’t I just feel worse.
I have huge health anxiety because of my previous problems - I’m going over so many scenarios in my head and I lost my Dad to lung cancer 6 years ago - I honestly I think I’m just scaring myself.
Am waiting to call gp at 8.30 - think I just wanted to write it down.

OP - I can get very anxious about health matters and my imagination takes me all over the place.

Not much use to you - just wanted to let you know you are not alone!

It’s so bloody frustrating - by the time I get to the Dr I know I will barely be able to string sentence together because I’m so anxious.

I love our dr surgery - basically just said exactly what I wrote here and I have an appointment this morning.
