Hi, Havent visited this site for about 4 months, trying to struggle on by myself. Started to feel much better about September time, not so tired and anxious and the last few weeks have started going into town on my own and not feeling faint when in shops and even managed to go for a checkup at the dentist which I hadnt done in over a year.
Now I have started with another symptom I havent had before and I think its worse than my dizzy symptoms and what makes it worse is whether it is due to anxiety or if there is something else wrong. I'm going back to the doctors next Monday if I can wait that long but I feel a failure and hope the doctor doesnt just instantly put it down to anxiety, well here it is, please let me know if you have similar symptom....
I feel that there is a lump in my throat (left side) and I keep trying to clear my throat, when I cough it feels that there is a swelling or I am trying to cough something up, then I cant swallow. I also find it hard to swallow food/water and I am constantly thinking about swallowing which I know only makes the feelings worse. Its really starting to freak me out but I am sure its anxiety although it happened about the same time I got a throat/ear infection and sickness seems to make me feel more anxious.
I am really down about this as I am starting to look for employment after being off for six months and I feel like im back at square one again.
Does anyone else have this problem and any suggestions how to help?
thanks
