Avatar m tn I took the ART for consecutive three days because of fear of progression of my deasses. After taking three days of ART I gave a Gap of one day and then I took a PCR RNA test from the reputed Lab of New Delhi. After 24 Hrs I received the result and it came back that the sample does not contain HIV-1 RNA. Now I got confused and stop the ART. I don't know that whether the 2nd PCR test came negative because of taking three days of ART as the first PCR test at mumbai gave only 225 copies/ml.

595125 tn?1219834270 What you descrive is a panic attack when you have this intense fear, then you become afraid of the fear and so on until it becomes a vicious circle. You came to the right place! You should browze a lot of these threads as you will quickly see that you are not alone in your fear and anxiety and you will perhaps learn from how others have coped with it.
Avatar m tn So for about 3 months now I've been dealing with false memory OCD, fear of hurting others and not being able to remember it, or creating a false memory that I actually did. Recently, my OCD has taken in my fear of bats and rabies. My brother and I were walking around an abandoned building taking pictures (been there before) in my town, everything was fine. We didn't go inside, just stepped into the doorway of a building then we started to head back.
Avatar f tn ve had 3 normal birth s and one emergency c section at 32 weeks. I lost 6 pints of blood on the table. Had lots of new blood and was put in a comma for 9 hours. I'm so glad they put me to sleep.I'm going to try for a vbac but if my specialists want me to have another c section. I want them to put me sleep again I don't feel I can be awake for it. Which is no way fair on my boyfriend as this is his 1st baby and he will miss out on seeing his baby come into the world.
Avatar n tn My 9 yr. old niece is terrified of going to sleep as she fears dying. We don't think she is pretending as she appears scared, says she sees white and black men standing in the hall and can describe what they are wearing.Her parents had the doctor give her a complete physical with blood work and EKG and physically she is fine.
Avatar f tn There is no way you are going to get pregnant using a restroom. How old are you and how long has this fear of pregnancy been going on? Do you see a psychologist?
506490 tn?1213431764 I was very active as a kid and now I have developed a fear of exercising. I'm afraid of the feelings that I might get along with like others have said, my heart beating really fast. I start to feel like I am panicking. what would normally be discomfort but feel good and healthy, and maybe even motivating, registers as pain for me. And I am afraid of feeling any pain, of any kind.
Avatar f tn We have a 12 year old daughter that needs to have a night-light along with a 9 year old daughter. Some children are just afraid of the dark, because they cannot see. He may have an active imagination at night when it is quiet in the house and he has time to think. It is nice to have a little light in the room in case of getting up in the night and being able to see. The night-light is his comfort and security.
Avatar n tn Your daughter is 11 years old and takes medication for anxiety. But, anxiety medication is used to "take off the edge" of a person's fears so that proper therapy (as CBT - cognitive behavioural therapy) and/or intervention (as worry desensitization) methods work. These are the tools to help your daughter learn how to manage her fears/anxieties; the medication only supports or assists therapy/intervention.
358304 tn?1409709492 H1N1 is getting a lot of attention in the media, but remember the VAST majority of people that contract it, get over it just like the seasonal flu. Once you have the flu, vaccines are ineffective because it is prophylaxis (preventing it), but doctors can prescribe antivirals like Tamiflu and Relenza for treatment to help with recovery with both the seasonal and swine flu.
Avatar f tn I felt the same and then I finally just faced my fear and said to myself, "If I'm going to die, I know I have touched plenty of peoples heart by now." I've mentally pushed that thought to the back of my head. Something else that can help you face your fears is confront yourself in a mirror and reasure yourself that everything will be ok. Tell yourself that you are healthy and say it with a smile.

Avatar m tn 4 (normal), so, should I still fear Cirrhosis which i have no way of knowing if I have, or does the normal bilirubin give me some comfort?
Avatar m tn plz help me to come out of the vicious cycle of fear. I will be grateful to you all my life. I have two kids & wife. I don't have any help from anyone. I was coping with the anxiety symtoms (chest pain/palpitation/chest tightness/dizziness/lightheadedness/jelly leg etc), by reading Dr. Claire weekes book, that, anxiety will not kill you. Now I came to where I was in the beginning.
