When I attempt to make a Differential Diagnosis during a panic attack

A couple of weeks ago I had a panic attack.It was this vague abdominal pain that won't go away.And being the doctor that I am I just had to make a diagnosis -A bunch of differential diagnosis all without any lab tests or other aids..
So,,all the racing differential diagnoses in my head finally gave me a panic attack..then i went to twitter and made a record of my thoughts..Just so that i can blog about them later..

Here goes

Had a severe panic attack compounded by abd pain,nausea.I have been sick this week.makin dramatic differential diagnoses doesn't help either3:32 PM Sep 14th from web

see.It is could be a ruptured ovarian cyst with Intraperitoneal infection leading to sepsis.could be a strangulated hernia.vaginal prolapse?3:34 PM Sep 14th from web

No wait, maybe i have had anemic hypertrophy of the heart due to constant blood loss due to hemarroids,or maybe my complication of swine flu3:36 PM Sep 14th from web

could it be sinusitis leading to sepsis causing the nausea?oh wait,Myab3:37 PM Sep 14th from web
-
maybe i have had undiagnosed Hypertension all this while which explains the headache..or wait, is the headache due to sinusitis?3:38 PM Sep 14th from web

Am i just a hypochondriac? or maybe psychosomatic disorder? gosh! knowing too much is sometimes a problem when you get sick.doctors=bad pts!3:39 PM Sep 14th from web

You know what my worst fear is .what if the ovarian cysts have already undergone that rare cancerous transformation and have metastasized !3:43 PM Sep 14th from web
-
what if the metastasis to different areas of the abdomen is what is causing abdominal pain which random and what if the nausea is cachexia?3:44 PM Sep 14th from web

want to see what a doctor tweets when she has a panic attack? read my previous 12 tweets.Maybe i must make them into a blog entry!3:47 PM Sep 14th from web

yeah.maybe metastatic secondaries all over giving me pain ..that is one thing i hope it NOT true.could be intususeption/volvulus/strangulatn4:04 PM Sep 14th from web
-
see the headache could be plain frontal sinusitis/inf associated with it/migraine/temporal arteritis/Hypertension associated ..soooooo4:05 PM Sep 14th from web

yeah.I also thought about if it is a progesterone producing ovarian cyst causing me rt lower quadrant pain with nausea4:06 PM Sep 14th from web
-
absolutely not getting any..so yeah, the chance of pregancy or ectopics is thankfully ruled out unless there is one of those evil twin thing4:07 PM Sep 14th from web

very very loud grumbling and bowel movement-some kind of obstruction?strangulation ?intususseption?volvulus?ovarian cyst pressing on bowel?4:08 PM Sep 14th from web

Seriously, being a doctor and being sick ..sucks..coz this whole thing sucks...the abd pain sucks,headache sucks,panic attack sucks most!4:09 PM Sep 14th from web

I am so sane and accurate when it comes to diagnosing my patients.Only when i do have to diagnose myself I go totally overboard!totally!4:26 AM Sep 15th from web

Now,see ,when i now read these tweets as i Import them from my Twitter stream.I find them Hilarious and outrageous...A progeterone producing cyst?What the hell? And suddenly it dawned on me that THIS IS HOW PATIENTS FEEL..They are stressed, they are scared and they are probably angry .I realized that when patients come to me with breast masses and other pains, they are very distressed and the fear is irrational but they can't help it ..
this panic attack help me understand their pain on a first hand basis and probably more receptive to their seeking my help..Hmmmm...
