Thank you everyone for your kind words, I really appreciate everything you’ve said.
At the weekend I visited my parents and I happened to mention how dizzy and tight chested I’d been feeling of late. My parents happened to check my fit bit to see my pulse rate as they know I’ve been stressed for some time.
My pulse was 106 bpm.
. I’m very fit and my resting pulse is in mid to late 50s.
They told me to get it checked out. I suddenly got quite concerned, as the more I thought about how I was feeling the more I realised how many dangerous symptoms I had.
I called in sick on Monday and had a long conversation with my GP. She signed me off with anxiety and literally ordered me to step back and try to relax.
