Hi all
I've been suffering with HH for a long time,Saturday I had a panic attack or something like that,kept on thinking about HH ruining my life and I that I have to do something.
Today I went to the doctor (NHS.UK) when he asked what was wrong I totally broke down, I explained that it's HH has made my life difficult and that I want help, he picked up on signs of depression but anyone with personal/health issues is going to be depressed a bit aren't they ?
He seems like a good guy and he believes its a anxiety issue rather than physical like diabetes or over active thyroid. He's recommended therapy and that I go on 40mg propranolol, one a day for 2 weeks and go back and see him.
Whats people experience with propranolol ?
Is this an anxiety Problem,a mental issue ?
What's the Uk or NHS like at dealing with HH?
Has therapy helped anyone?
Have your told your family, partners or parents ?
I feel relieved about speaking to someone and that half the battle is admiting the problem and trying to overcome it.
I appreciate any help,advice or feedback
Many thanks
