I guess you don't understand that but every time I try to go to the E.R I'm always confronted with fear that I'm going to be yelled at or rejected which is terrible for me so I back down or don't ask.

I suppose you don't understand that but I guess you don't think like me either so it doesn't matter what I say and regardless you're probably going to tell me I'm looking for attention anyway, which I'm not.

I have a lot of mental issues and that makes me back down before I can actually care for myself because I'm too terrified of making people angry.

I asked my dad to take me to the E.R today and I was terrified of what he would say, and I had to spend ten minutes just rehearsing my rebuttal to when he undoubtedly said no (which he did). Now my gf is mad at me because she has to go with me and I feel like even worse shit.

The reason I come to DR is because I'm usually unable to make it to a doctor because of these things and sometimes I get help here that lets me know I'm probably not dying which I am always afraid I am.

If you are in this country there is a lot of help out there.Stop making excuses and blaming others for your misfortune and DO something.Get yourself into the system.According to your posts you should qualify for disability (due to your mental and physical issues).Present yourself to the ER and refuse to leave,say your living situation is not safe for you.That's a start.

Had the same issues and symptoms that you have been describing. Look up Hpylori. Its a stomach infection that they dont really check for its a simple blood test. Hope this helps some

"Don't tell me go to the doctor"

Then suffer and die? What do you want us to say? Anyone else would go directly to the hospital, do not pass go do not collect 200$

He probably just needed to take a dump...

I understand very well having mental health issues that make reaching out - or even putting oneself into a position of doing so - very anxiety producing, so I empathize with you there.

However, when you are hurting that much, having that many problems, you need to go to the doctor/ER. I know you went, I'm talking about in the future. Hypochondriacs can be annoying to doctors, but often? There is actually something wrong - not always what the patient thinks, but something.

My mother, a life-long hypochondriac, nearly died from cryptococcal meningitis back in the 90's b/c my step-father (and her doctors) didn't believe her and said it was all in her head. Mostly, she just seemed nervous and run down...and was having head and back aches. And it turned out to be something life-threatening.

Then again, she thought she was absolutely dying a few times and it was just gas :

Please don't play roulette with your life. I know the ER/Dr. office can be "I will piss my pants from fear" bad in your head, but this sort of scenario makes up one of those times you just have to bear it and push on.

This sounds a lot like the pain i felt with gastritis. It's when the lining of your stomach is irritated and causes extreme pain with acidic, spicey or greasy foods. I went to the doctor and have healed completely with acid blocker meds, but on one night that i wasn't in a situation to go to the doctor i chugged Aloe water. Omg, thank god for Aloe water. Gastritis was no joke. And it was all caused by my stupid fruit smoothy diet. Too much acid. Then again it also sounds like chromes disease. Good luck. Keep us posted

I never quite know how people want these types of questions answered. If a taxi is too expensive, let alone a dr, how, exactly, are people expected to offer suggestions? The commenter above suggested aloe water, but that costs money. Proton pump inhibitors, like Prilosec, cost money.

Thank you so much for sharing this with us !

Tooth extraction --> open wound on oral gum--> Bacterial dissemination through the blood stream(probably an encapsulated organism) --> Gastritis + UTI...

Dude you had bacteria disseminated through your entire cardiovascular system.... you must have felt like fucking shiiiiiiiit no wonder you thought you were dying
I'm glad you're felling better
Keep coming back

I did end up getting to the E.R after having to fight my way there, and I was diagnosed with the above.

Which came from the last post I posted about, the tooth extraction.

I don't post here asking for attention, I post here because I'm always terrified I'm dying.
