Morning
Following my post last week (and thanks again for all of your replies) I spoke to my GP today and gave her my symptoms - ad hoc pain (like a gnawing in my tummy), dry mouth, coated tongue, feel as I have too much saliva, throat clearing, burping, water hard to go down etc etc. I've also lost 4lb in a couple of weeks but do put that down to smaller meals, no chocolate or crisp. I don't have these all at once but over a day these are my general symptoms.
I didn't get chance to ask her many questions - but she will see me, examine me, re-do bloods and has, in the meantime, given me a prescription for lansoprazole. This threw me as I have mentioned to her before my absolute fear of medication.
My husband thinks I should have left it a little while longer, he is convinced this is all stress and anxiety. The problem is I'm now even more anxious about the blood tests, the medication and I guess she may eventually send me for an endoscopy - I feel terrified.
I know people go through a lot worse and I am grateful she is seeing me and the blood tests etc but I just want it all to go away (I know it won't, of course).
Thanks for listening. x
