Health anxiety.. really struggling
This month I’ve been feeling very mentally low. I have some horrible anxiety & depressive moods.
I have a 10 month old baby and if I’m being honest, he’s the only reason I get up and start my day.
I had my nexplanon put in mid September and a week later I got covid. The first month of it in: I passed big blood clots and have practically bled since early October (minus a few days in between) I’ve been to hospital for chest X ray in October because I felt like I was dying.. I think in reality I was suffering from a panic attack that night.
The chest X ray came back clear
All my blood tests (I’ve had 3 very thorough ones done) came back clear.
November I was ok for the most part
December, depression, I hate everyone internally I think of people the way I NEVER have! I have been to the doctors so many times this month. I convinced myself I had diverticulitis and have had a chest X ray on Friday for this chest pain on my right side. (I can’t tell if I’m in pain of this is just another anxiety attack pending on me)
I have been worried about having changes in my breasts & have been having panic attacks almost everyday since last Monday.
I think I have a problem..
I actually feel scared to admit this so please don’t hate me or judge me for this.
I have sadly convinced myself I have a stage 4 breast cancer and that’s why my chest and back ache.
I’m crying as I’m typing this. I live in the UK & can’t get the implant out until soonest next month. No healthcare professional has helped me in terms of my mental health struggles. I really am struggling.
Can nexplanon cause mood changes to this extent?
Please if anyone reads this, please send kind affirmations.
