Hello all. Im a woman who suffers from Panic Disorder/Anxiety. Here's the story and then I'll get to the question.
I went to my PCP 3 weeks ago. He diagnosed me with a Sinus Infection, gave me antibiotics (Augmentin, 2 a day for 10 days) nasal spray, and cough medicine. I took the cough medicine because It stopped the coughing, but i stopped after about 3 days with cough syrup because the mucus was stuck in my chest, I work in the medical field, so I know for a fact, it's best to get the mucus out. It's now 3 weeks later and I have back pain like I never felt before, my head feels like its gonna explode, again, and Im still coughing up mucus and have all the other symptoms of whatever this is thats I have. (body aches, headache, lethargic, nausea, NO Fever though?)
I feel like I have an infection going through my body, but without a fever. I went to the Hospital this morning, because I woke up with the back pain spreading to my upper back, and my head is so congested it feels like it going to literally explode. I called my husband to let him know I was going, and his response was "Are you serious? You don't need to go to the Hospital for something little like that" He sounded pissed off, and I know he was reffering to my anxiety, but I tried explaining to him that this is "REAL" and I know it! Then he started to complain about paying for the hospital visit and it made me feel bad/guilty, so I just left the hospital and came home before the doctor even saw me.
I have only went to the Emergency room 2 times before because of chest pain, which they couldnt do anything about since it was anxiety related.
Do you think this is my anxiety??? Should my Husband react this way to me???
