Doctor's Appointment, Really Nervous

[Imshael]

So I finally have an appointment at the ENT tomorrow, and now I'm really nervous.

I've been waiting for months, but now when it's time I really don't want to go.

Like what if they can't find anything, what if they do, what if they accidentally make it worse while doing any of the tests?

I know I have to go, after months I've still got this pain that comes and goes and it's something that needs to get looked at. I just...ugh, I really don't like going to the doctors and need to vent a bit, I guess.

@Imshael ,
Try not to worry and let them check you out and they will reasure you about any concerns you might have.
Let us all know how you get on and we will be thinking about you...
love glynis

@glynis thank you for your kind words. I know it's for the best, but overthinking is a bit too easy for me.

How did your appointment today go @Imshael?

Thank you for asking, @Starthrower ! It went pretty well. Nothing wrong with my ears at all, everything looked fine and my hearing was good. After feeling around my neck for a bit the doctor decided that I should go see a
physiotherapist, and after one look at my mouth he wanted me to go see a jaw specialist (is that what it's called in english?). My teeth are a bit of a mess, so I guess it makes sense. He said that it might be what causes my tinnitus and my pain. Just gonna have to wait and see what happens, I guess.

So glad it was a positive experience for you. I think speaking to a physiotherapist would be a good idea. It is important to get your jaw/teeth issues looked at. I know it is scary. Trust me do it now just to have another opinion.
