for the past 2 months i have been experiencing HA big time! which fed in to  depression, I am now exp hemorrhoids! agh! was told by my new doctor that I have IBS I get SO paranoid over the smallest indication that I might be deathly ill, even when I had a full blood work couple months ago and was told by several other doctors that i am pretty healthy. why can't i just believe them and move on. :(  i love life and try to be positive but some how I have a hard time with trusting that things will be alright when it comes to health concerns. This all started 10 months ago when I had my Gallbladder removed. horrible exp, doctors had horrible bed side manners and I felt traumatized over the way they were treating me any in put would be appreciated.

I know what you mean... I had HA way before a bad experience with docs, but since then I had a bad experience where I was misdiagnosed which led to MAJOR anxiety. I just wanted to respond and let you know docs thought I had IBS and I don't - my system went completely back to normal. I think many, many people have stomach or intestine problems and just take some antiacid. Also, hemorroids from what I hear are painful, but in no way a crisis. It definitely sounds like you are NOT deathly ill, but I understand your feelings.

Thanks for your much needed response, I feel much better today in regards to the Hemorrhoid's, I just freak out when any sign of ailment presents its self in my being, in addition to my Gallbladder exp, What happened was when I got to the emergency room and had my blood drawn  when the blood results came back i got the 3rd degree from the doctors asking me "rather harshly" if I "DRANK" excessive Alcohol, I looked at them very frightenend bc of their approach to me I said no I don't drink too much I have a glass of wine here and there but that's it. okay mam! how about drugs? again NO! :sprachlos020: what is going on I asked?? They said my liver enzymes were way too high, and they had to call a liver specialist to come see me!!!!!Well I had no clue what that meant and freaked the heck out!, Mind you as i was later informed when  having GB Issues like I had (Chronic GB) the sludge and bile would run up all kinds of crap! at least this is what I was told when the whole ordeal so called blew over and i went home from the yuk hospital of course they had to get a piece of my liver for a biopsy! I was totally freaking out for the whole 2 weeks that I had to wait for the results! then I had to have a follow up by having more blood drawn to check my liver function test, i was told by that Dr to call in 2 days he should have the results i did call in 2 days and no answers just the run around, i called every 4 days for almost 2 months and to no avail! I was under the impression they found something bad and would not tell me, I was on pins and needles but all my friends and family kept trying to calm me down by telling me if there was something wrong they would call you up immediately, finally i got tired of it and had a second opinion had the liver function test done not to mention a complete blood work with another different doctor out of town, when the day came for me to go back for the results all i did was PRAY,PRAY AND PRAY, my nerves were SO on edge i could hear my heart beat in my head not to mention the WHAT IF Syndrome! I was so scared of what they were going to tell me! :sick0002: okay so the nurse calls me in, she pulls out my results and looks at me and says, wow! you must be one of the healthest people i have come across in a long time. I immediately stood straight in my chair and looked behind me and pointed at myself and said who me? your talking to me? she laughed and said YES YOU, you would not believe the huge weight that had been lifted. However, 4 months later it's happening again Health Anxiety ::) oh lord please help me. oh and yeah my biopsy came back normal.  :action-smiley-065:
