If anyone else reading this thread has ever felt, or is currently feeling, utterly dog shit, it could just be stress.

I had kidney pain, chest pain, migraines, felt sick constantly, fatigued... I look after myself. I run, rock climb, eat ok, not overweight. The doctor was very worried, gave me anti-sickness tablets as a first thought, ordered every single test imaginable.

It was just stress, I didn’t think work was doing that to me.

Had some conversations with HR, top management listened, unrealistic dates shifted. I got better almost overnight.

I’ve read a number of comments here that possibly could be the same, so I hope this helps somebody.
