Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Oh Dreamy, I am praying they are not cancerous tumours.
You are seeing all the specialists.
Ask your doctor if you can have a sleeping pill.
At least with a good nights sleep, it is easier to deal with all these worries.
You get on well with your GP, take a list of what you want to ask. I do that when I am stressed.
Keep us posted if you can.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

The doctor's hospital psychiatry consultant already prescribed me a sleeping pill, though I doubt it will work as I take all kinds of stuff at night. And I'm dealing with demons and evil beings every time I sleep anyway; a sleeping pill is no defence against that.

My illness is the cause of all that unpleasant stuff and, until it can be properly diagnosed It won't go away.

I'm tending to think my time is up.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Don't think that way Dreamy. They are just silly nightmares.
Think of them as a horror film and it is all just acting.
Your time is not up, that is giving up.
Never give up. xxx
I agree that your diagnosis needs to be treated with priority.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Mind altering drugs such as sleeping pills, and benzodiazepines such as ativan, and other mind altering medications can cause these hallucinations (or demon, as you choose to call them).......

When I had my last operation, I had acute delerium caused by the medication they gave me....I saw strange things like my brother laughing up in the clock, and pretty purple curtains that disappear when I touched them....they seem to all be up towards the ceiling looking down at me.

Hallucinations all of them...... I first had them when I had cancer (Had 4 operations)...then two years ago, I went through it again, but I told my brain what they were and I prayed. I was more able to cope with it, when I understood them......

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Well I'm sure they'll be quick to come up with a biopsy then most of the horrific mental scenes will disappear provided they are given the right treatment.

I'm in my GP's waiting room just now to deliver her two letters,one each from Haematology and Psychiatry. I just hope there's something she can do or suggest how I get through this torrid time.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Me too Dreamy. Me too. xxx
You are in my prayers.
The biopsy should be done ASAP!

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Any drug that changes how your brain thinks (mind altering) can give you comfort, or they can also cause you stress and hallucinations.

Marijuana can be a "happy" drug, but if you don't know how much you can handle, it can cause you do do things you don't normally do.

Alcohol, at a certain level can make you happy and lovable, then at another level it can cause you to do things that you would not normally do.

Drugs work the same way.

All the best to you Richard. If you ever want prayer, just let me know.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Good idea, Blue - time perhaps to tell the demons they're not real and to take a hike. I've never been particularly religious, but have become moreso lately.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Lay your burdens at the foot of the cross, and plead the blood of Jesus on you for protection and healing.

When you tell your demons to "scram", say "I reject you in the name of Jesus". Demons hate Jesus and will run. Everything you pray about, want, need..... do it "in the name of Jesus" Speak it out loud even if in hospital. do not be embarassed. If you are proud of Jesus, He will be proud of YOU.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

And yes, I would like some prayer, please.
