Um...

-
Blood test results are in...
CRP - Normal
ESR - Normal
Folate - Normal
B12 - 172.0 - Deficient... Should be between 200.0 - 900.0.

That would explain a few things....

My mum has a B12 deficiency, It's easily treated. She now can feel when her B12 is low - She wants to sleep all the time and gets anxious (she doesn't suffer from anxiety)etc. The B12 injections are supposed to make you feel brilliant.

I believe the B12 deficency is probably caused by my eating disorder, and that would make sense since i've had it for so many years now. I've got to go back on Wednesday, so i'll see then :)

OMG Sarah, Thats how all my anxiety started with undiagnosed B12 deficiency!!!The hospital kept saying there was nothing wrong with me, and my levels were 45!!
Im so glad you found out :-) I just have monthly injections now and they really do help and give you more energy and settle anxiety down as well.

Yes exactly, it cab stay low for a long time and doctors just say we are anxious instead of testing us for it!

Nah, the injections dont hurt at all, i just have them in my thigh, better option than tablets as you know it isnt just passing through your body and its going straight into the muscle so it gets absorbed properly.

Im so glad you found out :-)

Hi Sarah
I have pernicious anemia, and have B12 injections and vitamins.
My anxiety is a lot less when I am not so low on B12.
Regarding your boyfriend - just my opinion - but he needs to be a bit more understanding. If he loves you as he says he does, then he needs to prove it to you. You need support and encouragement not criticism.
As for his rages when he is drunk. then just my opinion again, but that is the last thing you need, I imagine.

From the mouth of an EX agoraphobic

-
A friend of mine yesterday pointed out what a person had written on their blog about being agoraphobic. Said person is an EX agoraphobic...this is what was said. "Agoraphobia is a selfish state of mind. Its completely "curable", and yet some people just wallow in their own self-pity and will never ever get over themselves and recover. When you are so worried about yourself all the time, how can you possibly be a good mother to someone else? Or a good wife/girlfriend/friend? I've unfortunately been the agoraphobic, and I've been the agoraphobics friend. As the friend, it was miserable. Nothing was ever about anything else but them. It was annoying and frustrating. And completely in their hands to change it, but they wouldn't. Because they're too selfish and self centered. Those aren't qualities people like in a person." Opinions please?

It DID get worse..

...now there's a shocker! I have spent the entire evening in hospital. We had to call an ambulance, these feelings in my heart were insane. I was sat in the back on the ambulance and they did all my obs. I was tachycardic, my BP was really high (usually its stupid low) and my ECG was showing Atrial fibrillation, meaning the top two chambers of my heart are beating faster than the bottom two. I was put on oxygen as well because my breathing was a little bit crappy. The medic man stuck a candular in my hand and hit a valve apparently, my hand swelled up in seconds, it was so painful. Got to the hospital and did all the necessary things and then we had to wait...and wait...and wait. Where they'd stuck that needle in the back of my hand and hit the valve, it started going dead. I couldn't feel 4 of my fingers! I called to get someone to take the bugger out. I'm left with a lovely bit blue bruise this morning. My step-father was called to pick us up because we thoug
