Morning ladies, I have had these horrible things off and on since starting the menopause 8 years ago. Haven't had them in months and low and behold back they come. Had them for a few days now😡. Is there anyone out there post memo and still getting these off and on. Don't want to go back to Dr if it's just another blip. X

Thanks for replies ladies, think i will need to put up and shut up. I sometimes wish the health anxiety would do one as i start to think Dr's are missing things and i start to worry again, always helps when someone has the same.

Understand jgr. It only takes a bad experience with a doc, and after caring for my late wife I had a few, to make you lose that trust. In the end tho we have no choice but to hope they know what they are doing, and many do.

I have had 3 scares with the big c  in the last 12 years. Once wad breast lump, second was lymph nodes and more recently ovarian mass. I have to say each time I was seen by a specialist within 2 weeks and scans were done very quickly. Each was a different Gp and they all took it very seriously and acted quickly on first visit. I would like to think this is the norm, at least I would like to hope so.
With some symptoms it seems like you have to push a bit harder. All we can do is be as informed as we can, speak up and not be fobbed off.
 
Wish you well

OMG TC you have had a rough time of it, makes me wonder why i am on here worried about something i have had for years. I do hope you are now on the road to recovery as you have had more than your fair share of illness. I am sure you are right with GP's, the majority are very good at their job and we couldn't live without them. Take care, sending big hugs.

Don't ever think your problems are any less important than anyone else's.
I mentioned my scares as I hoped to reassure you that, at least in my case, I have had good experiences as well as bad.
I have only been on this forum for a few months but in my opinion  have seen how everyone has an input and can be of help or comfort to others as well as seeking the same for themselves.
I have posted asking for help and I have also tried to share and help others where I can and you have done the same. I have received helpful replies from you.
So please don't think you are not valid on here.xxx

Exactly this !  Had an episode sitting at my desk this am, panicked for 10 minutes, wanted to run away.  Still anxious all day after that.
