I'm sorry you are going through this and I feel your pain. I was like this in 2003. I knew I was sick and I wouldn't go to the doctor for nothin'!!! My husband came in the door one day and picked me up off the couch and took me to the walk-in clinic. I hate doctors and I can't stand going to my appts, either. I have major anxiety attacks when I get in there and have to pop imodium/pepto/anti-nausea stuff. All of it!!! I always freak out when I go to the doctor, too. It's hard.
I'm not going to sit here and tell you that you have to go to a doctor. You have to make that decision on your own based on whether or not you can deal with the pain or HOW MUCH LONGER you can deal with the pain, rather. My mom kept telling me that I had to go and I wouldn't listen to her, either. I would have rather died, too. But, my husband wouldn't have it. He made me go and as much as I hated it.....I'm glad that I did it and got it over with. Now, at least I know exactly what I'm dealing with instead of just sitting here worrying and wondering if I had IBS or cancer.....
I did alot of praying, too. I told my family, friends, everyone that I was just going to continue to pray and if it was in His will to heal me than He would!! "Until then, I will just lay here, read my bible and pray." I don't know why I'm soo terrified of doctors. I cancelled my appt last week, too. I don't need to go back, anymore. They're done trying to help me anyway. They want to do that hida scan on my gallbladder, which sounds like the test that made you pass out, and I don't want to do it. I am afraid to do it and I don't think it's my gallbaldder, anyway. My husband, of course, is fixin' to force me though. He got mad at me today about it.....CRAP!!!
Good Luck to you and I will pray for you, regardless of what you decide to do!
Hope you get to feeling better soon!!
