Hello I'm a hypochondriac might be a start!
I'm male in my late 40s, I've experienced quite a bit of ill health over the last 10 years, principally TB in 2005, than a chest infection (which may or may not have been pneumonia) this summer
In addition my partner has been undergoing treatment for breast cancer on and off over the same period.
I have quite a bit of anxiety / stress around health issues / taking time off work etc. I know that stress can in itself add to my ill health. The stress itself can be quite debilitating
Why am I writing this? Well I thought?about keeping a diary to monitor how I am / get some perspective on things. But hey t the C21 so why not a blog. One very much for my own benefit. Not expecting anyone else to read it.
So how am I today? Not so good, feeling tired and achy and depressed. Working at home as there is a tube strike and have spent all day sat at the PC which isn't good. Started to feel really down yesterday evening and have continued to feel much the same today. I'd say more psychological than physiological if that makes sense. But it's hard to know.
Anyway at least I have made a start.
