Hi I'm new to this site and have joined today.
I have been getting some weird symptons off and on for the last few months.
I have been told by my GP that I have thrombocytosis and raised blood plates and am currently 2 weeks into taking aspirin before seeing a hematologist.
It's a real nightmare at the moment. I go to work and do my job but I don't feel I have much energy I have constant depersonalisation. One minute I am happy next minute I'm down. I have moments of panic then I go out for fresh air I work in an office all day so when your not getting any fresh air it doesn't help. My head feels constantly heavy and get sweaty hands a lot of diziness. My hyperventilating doesn't help - I get this mostly when driving when I can't breath. I cope with driving a bit but long journey's are not so good. Being in a car with someone is different and I'm calmer but it's when I am on my own I experience issues. I also notice that when I stand to talk to people it's difficult as I'm dizzy and feel like I'm on a boat, I get figidity and anxous I can't seem to laugh and talk loud like I used to. I used to be such a lively sociable person but seem quieter these days only because if I get myself too excited I get overwhelmed and the panic sets in. My appetite seems fine and I sleep well. I'm hoping it will pass but for now it's quite frustrating, I joined because I wanted to share my feelings with you - currently reading Claire Weeks self help for your nerves - does anyone have similar symptoms. Love to hear from you if you do :-)
