All I need to say is phew. It took a moment to feel like myself. I had/have been experiencing health anxiety for about 6 weeks. I don't know what triggered it, or why some days have been better than others. I do think it has had to do with being menopausal. And because I thought it was menopausal, I did what most women would do.
I called my gyn doctor, and talked with the triage nurse who was so sweet. The following morning, I had a telehealth appointment with a NP. I understand that the medical profession is extremely busy. However, she didn't listen to any of my concerns, I spent a total of SIX MINUTES on the telehealth call.
I then called my GP, and we talked about what was going on-not feeling like myself, mood swings, etc. I am so thankful that I felt heard. I have been making it a point to take care of me, walking, pool time where I can just float..I am feeling so much better. Cheers to taking care of YOU.
