Hello ,
I’m wondering if this sounds like PNI. I have always suffered in my adult life from mild anxiety but I feel now it’s extreme and been taking 5HTP for two weeks with slight improvement.
I had my first son and was very traumatic , 3 day labour and nearly died. I was in an very physically abusive relationship and my ex strangled me until I was unconscious. I fled with my first son and went to refuge.
I left refuge and slowly rebuilt my life. I met my partner who is so loving and caring and within a few years fell pregnant. I was so happy. We’d bought a house and my son loves my partner.
My trouble started when the courts gave my partner contact unsupervised and was told if anything happened to me my ex would get custody. That’s when panic started for my own health. I keep thinking if I can just live until he’s 18 so he wouldn’t have to go live with someone violent and abusive. It sounds mad but we have learnt to cope with his contact alternate weekends. Everytime I see my ex my anxiety is through the roof.
When I had my second son I gave birth in six minutes and still am thinking something must be wrong here to give birth so fast. I felt so happy but plagued with the doom something may happen to me. I called the midwife out as thought I was dying and got myself into hysterics. I got the midwife out twice and then went to to doctor as I thought I had cardiac problems.
Since then I’ve been convinced I have a brain tumour , MS , DVT , stroke , mini stroke ,undiagnosed heart condition , heart attack , childbed fever, postpartum pre eclampsia , anemia , low b12 , Addison’s crisis , bowel cancer, angina , bone cancer , arthritis , osteoporosis to name a few in ten weeks time !
I’ve got tingling in my face now and numbness and I ache all over . I get palpitations and my stomach hurts a lot. I have blurry vision and loads of floaters. I also have a sore throat. Are these anxiety signs ?!? I know this isn’t normal and I love both my babies so much I am just obsessed with becoming poorly and leaving them so much.
