Health - 5 February 2007

I have a rash on my inner forearms legs and waist. The rash looks like little red marks/blotches under the skin. They do not hurt or itch. The doctor has told me it may be excema; but it doesn't look like excema to me. He has prescribed me with hydrocortisone cream. Has anyone experienced anything similar? or have any idea what it could be?

We all have them but is there a reason as to why, apart from being able to open certain things or for women to paint them.

I have acute anxiety. It feels as though I cannot breathe at times, so I have to take more breathing, like my heart is coming out of my chest, or that I will die at any moment. I told a doctor about this and he is sending me to a heart specialist. But says he thinks it’s in my head because I have a history of acute anxiety and major depression. I am talking anxiety medicine for it but it doesn’t seem to help as much and makes me feel somewhat dazed. If it’s in my head like the doctor says why does it feel so life-threatening all the time? In the meanwhile what do I do so it doesn’t affect me? How do I manage it? It is so extreme… in some cases I was rushed to the emergency room by ambulance and immediately put on oxygen. In other cases I was evaluated by a caseworker and sent to a mental institution. Am I actually dying or is this a feeling that you get for having regular anxiety, acute anxiety or anxiety attacks?

I realised that my colleagues shout when they have earphones on (with music playing) and they do not seem to realise that they are shouting.

The same has been said of me - does someone have a medical explanation of this?

I have often woken up in the middle of the night with very fast heart palpitations. Especially if I exercised during the day or the day before. It is extremely uncomfortable and I usually have to wait some time before it passes.

It was previously diagnosed as a result of Wolff-Parkinsons-White (WPW). So I had an ablation done in Dec. I've done a threadmill test and the ECGs are all clear. I did have it again after the op and my cardiologist dismissed it as my heart recovering.

I've starting exercising again and last night the palpitations were back !!! Does anyone else have similiar experiences?? Are there any other potential causes?

18 months ago I had a spot come up on my cheek and it got infected, took a long time to heal, scabbed over and left me with a slightly indented, bright red mark. Some people say it is a scar and some say it is pigmentation, whatever it is, it is not fading. I have tried so much stuff; glycolic acid peels, crystal clear microdermabrasions, bio-oil, palmers scar serum...the list is endless.

To be honest, I am struggling to cover it up. Normal concealer makes it look like I have an orange patch on my cheek. It is really noticeable and has dented my confidence. I have to have makeup when my partner is over or the lights off so he cant see it. I have endless nights or tears because my face is ruined. It has really caused me to lose a lot of confidence and I hate what i see in the mirror.

Can anyone recommend anything or have you been there before?
