what do you wear during an attack?

I know is sounds strange, but I have clothes that I am comfortable in most when I am so sick. While I am usually a bare foot kinda gal, I want socks on my feet. Just something about warmth at the bottom of my body and maybe them being wrapped is piece of mind. I also might pace when I feel sick. Actually I pace alot. Before we knew what any of this was I would pace our street up and down. I would have these huge anxiety attacks. I still have them although not as severe.

Next I need elastic waste bottoms. Something loose and not binding and easy up and down for the obvious reasons. I have a few pairs of like lounge pants that are cotton and loose and do the trick.

I want a regular bra and not an underwire bra. I end up feeling like my ribs are being squeezed. Not on a normal day, just when I am feeling so bad. And usually a short sleeve shirt with a zipper sweatshirt that I can take off and on.

No jewelry. I have even been known to take my wedding rings off.

A favorite blanket. We have a polar tec from land's end that I bought several years ago for my husband for Christmas. Normally it is just a touch to hot, but it makes me feel swaddled. Thinking newborns know what they are crying about with this one.
