I get the white coat syndrome as well. BP is normal all the time except for when I go to the Dr. Its even been going up lately when my kids have to go to the Dr. I can feel it as well and can tell when it's high before they check it. Not sure what to do about it, other than not go to the Dr unless I have to. Or, I have considered maybe going more often would help cause I'd get used to it. Who knows?

I get anxiety in the morning a lot too. Just not knowing what the day holds can be scary. When I have time to exercise in the morning it helps, along with prayer.

Great news Molly! Praying you feel better soon!

Sounds like you and I are in the same boat LOL! The wonders of perimenopause. Glad it was nothing serious.

Awesome Leah!!! So happy for you.

I would take it as they didn't see anything so they have no reason to call you. What I've always heard is, when they see bad things, they call you quickly. You might get some info if you call the office tomorrow and just ask about it. I have done that before and depending on who you talk to, you may get a lot of info that way. It is horrible to wait, I know.

You are brave just for going to get it done. Be proud of yourself for that!

Sometimes acting calm is all we can manage. So understandable! Let us know what you find out. Praying for good results!

I wouldn't worry about it at all. Just trim 'em next time. My dad has been pulling out one particularly stubborn nose hair of his for approximately 40 years now(that I know of) and he has never, ever had a problem. I always wondered how he could stand to do that. Makes my eyes water just thinking about it 😂

Leah, I really hate to get tests, imaging, or any of that stuff. It would be fine and dandy if it was always normal, right? I think anxiety tries to tell us that results will only either be "normal" or "incurable". I think the hardest thing is to realize that there's a whole lot of stuff between "normal" and "incurable". We are all believing the best for you. It may be a challenging few days but know that you are not alone!

Yes, a friend of mine said she ruptured her eardrum and this is how it happened for her.

Sounds like wax or fluid to me. I would go to the appointment so they can clean it out if its wax.

I'm glad you are going to the Dr about this, not because I think anything is wrong, but just because it will make you feel better. I finally went cause I was tired of worrying about it. My spotting had almost stopped at that point but I went anyway instead of cancelling cause I wanted to be able to stop thinking about it. Let us know how it goes! Praying for you!

This is exactly what I was doing also on the spotting only days. From what I read online and talking to people I know its pretty common.

This happens to me when I go to the Dr. Its just cause I am there. Probably the same for you. Or, if you are ill or have a fever, that can cause your HR to be high as well. If the Dr would have been concerned, I bet he/she would have ordered additional testing.
