depression/anxiety

Posted by brit @brit, Mar 28, 2019

I feel like I am losing my mind. Anxiety and depressing is my problem. I worry about things that are not happening all the time. Got a cscan and 4 doctors say I don't have a lesion on my liver one doctor says "coninsidently" found a lesion. I had it looked into and the other doctor said there is not lesion. What can I do next? Patti worry and anxiety

@lioness @brit That is exactly what I would do. Have the test repeated if you are concerned and getting mixed messages. Good luck to you!

Time to see a different radiology clinic. I had a tumor removed at Mayo 60 years ago. My parents had been told by the local surgeon that I had a tumor in both ears, and were understandably distressed. Had the exam at Mayo, and the second tumor turned out to be a shadow on a poorly executed x-ray. Only one surgery, and great relief. I pray that you take advantage of a second opinion.

Did I miss something concerning catmom777 as I do not see her in this thread??? Mayhap I am missing something here @merpreb.. Most confused. I did learn I have a UTI which can cause confusion.
The Red Wing Blackbirds have returned and most of the snow has melted.

I have gone through periods of depression my whole life, back to when I was a little girl. I was terribly abused by my mother and thought my parents didn't want me, so I've had that to live with all my life. But, I've made it to 65 and except for afib and osteoporosis and maybe chronic bronchitis, I'm still here. I have happy times too, but with the recent diagnosis, the depression came back. And, it's pretty hard not get anxious when your heart is skipping beats and seems to be struggling to beat. I felt funny about 1/2 hour ago and took my pulse and it was acting like that. My cardiologist appointment is in two weeks. I hope he has some answers.
But thanks for thinking of me. I know I could use the support of this group. One thing that some of us struggle with is feeling awfully alone. I live alone and my family is miles away, so it gets hard when health issues crop up.
I appreciate your concern. I'll tune in later. Have a good evening.
