Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
Hi, I could really use some words of encouragement because on wends. I am going to be having a colonoscopy and an upper gi done. I cannot have anything to eat at all tomorrow only liquid. I am feeling very anxious about getting this done and not feeling well because I can't eat and having to go through the prep.
I am also a bit upset that I went to see my psychologist last thursday and she said that I should get a complete blood workup and an ekg done because I am experiencing so many symptoms so I called my clinic to set it up. I have to see my dr. first before she will order the tests and I can't get in to see her until July 1st and that is just because I already had an appt. set for that day. I am in misery and they are going to make me wait. I have been in a living hell for months now and would like to get out of it as soon as possible so if there is something causing my anxiety in my body then I would love to have it found asap. I seriously feel that is what is wrong with this country. I think people who are dealing with this crap should be seen asap and not put off appointments for weeks at a time.

Keep a daily journal of everything you do, eat, and a stick figure as to what hurts where.
The preparation for the colonoscopy can be special, use pretty container to make it more pleasant as you do the liquid menu.
Your psychologist is giving you a tool with the mention of those tests. You have an office visit set up and can start that process.
Anxiety is natural. It comes from within, so the more you write out what is happening, the faster you will figure out what works for you and what does not.
Stay hydrated, practice breathing, and walk. Best wishes.
Good luck just stay strong!
