anxiety

Avatar f tn My anxiety is very physical. I feel like I have the flu...I get super nauseos, weak, shaky, heart racing, feeling like I have a fever. Its horrible and really debilitating. And I never know if im actually sick or not. Recently, I tend to get these symptoms after a really stressful situation.
Avatar n tn I know that sounds stupid but can you experience Anxiety symptoms even at a time when you are not in a situation that you are anxious about. I have been worrying about my health for a while now and seem to have anxiety symptoms all the time even when i am not worrying.

Avatar f tn I have driving anxiety, but its not constant. Its usually rather different than what I've read others from having. I have had driving anxiety since I was sixteen years old. Usually it is mainly triggered : if I have a passenger. If I am driving by myself I do just fine. Bridges, merges, and going left seem to do it, but usually always when I have a passenger. I can conquer it okay, but I've gotten to the point, where I avoid the highway at times.
Avatar m tn This week we are re-running a more comprehensive lyme disease panel and an MRI of my brain. I to have gotten the anxiety thing, but after trying to treat it as anxiety doctors are thinking something else now. Just to give you some info on my myself... I am a 22 year old, male, I have been incredibly healthy all my life. I ran 7 miles a day, weight lifted, played junior hockey and was a healthy upbeat individual.
Avatar f tn why do i keep having anxiety symptoms even when im not anxious ? like sometimes when i stand up i feel unbalanced and dizzy , cold feet & hands , everything feels weird and etc.
Avatar f tn Once we learn how to break that cycle (again, with therapy while meds help control the symptoms)...we can move past that way of thinking. Once we manage that, our anxiety level diminishes greatly, and for some, goes away all together. If you haven't yet, see a psychiatrist who can properly assess and diagnose you, and then discuss with you the various treatments out there! Good luck...keep us updated!
Avatar m tn Is it possible to have the physical symptoms of anxiety (muscle aches, feeling of not being totally there, unsteadiness) without feeling anxious? I've been having the worst symptoms lately and got all checked out by a bunch of doctors who keep saying its stress and anxiety. But I haven't really been feeling anxious...can that still be an issue?
Avatar f tn Hi Penelope. I hope you had a chance to look over that Health Page on appointment preparation. It's so very helpful but you don't have a lot of time to get things together if you haven't already started. Most important is to get a few thoughts organized and down on paper. When doctors start their own agenda you can easily lose track of your own priorities so don't hesitate to use a written "cheat sheet". Above all else, please try to relax.
Avatar m tn By the way, there might be natural ways to fight this skin condition. If you can afford it, you might try consulting a professional who practices natural medicine if you don't know anything about it. Your skin might be too oily because of dietary habits. If you've taken a lot of meds for it, it kills off the parts of the immune system that fights these things and makes it more likely they will come back repeatedly.
Avatar m tn I too had digestive problems, muscle tension that led to a 3 week headache, leg cramping, twitches mostly in legs (but not constant), sweats, insomnia, loss of appetite, all this led to depression. Not trying to scare you, but let you know that physically, anxiety can wreak havoc on you mind and body. Get help now. Finally a doc told me I had GAD and gave Celexa (SSRI). It didn't work so now I'm trying Remeron.
Avatar f tn Surely if I had penetrated her she or I would have noticed, but I am not sure and am leaning towards me not penetrating her seeing as how my penis was exposed for only a few moments. Since then I have had a few questionable symptoms. Are canker sores related to initial infection? I have had two in the past 12 days separately. I have been having these odd aches across my body, especially in my hands and fingers. Is this sort of joint or muscle pain common in infection?
Avatar n tn While I do not want to add to your anxiety, I must tell you that the symptoms that you mention are not anxiety symptoms. Anxiety feels like feeling shaky on the inside, feeling scared all the time but having no reason to feel it. Rapid heartbeat, sweaty palms, feeling that you are "losing it".(your mind) Feeling unreal, extremely anxious.
Avatar m tn When i get anxious these symptoms flare up. Only time i get restless is when its in my trunk but walking has no relief. Regardless I'm just curious if anxiety can cause these tickling tingling sensations in the body. I've had MRI done CT's and a NVC.
Avatar m tn Please understand that the symptoms that you had were non-specific symptoms which could have any number of other causes, including being due to anxiety and that when symptoms and test results do not match up, the tests are virtually always correct. It is now time for you to accept the fact that your no risk exposure did not lead to HIV infection and work to move forward. I hope that my comment will help you to do this.
Avatar n tn ZERO RISK as you've engaged in PROTECTED SEX. NO testing recommended from this activity. Regardless of what you've read,HIV can NOT be diagnosed by ANY symptoms. 'Window Girls" are licensed through the Health Ministry in Amsterdam.They are required to submit to periodic HIV tests regularly.

Avatar f tn If you don't feel anxious, you're not anxious. Anxiety is a mental problem, and the body problems flow from that. If you're not anxious, and only you can know that, then there might be something else going on. On the other hand, the symptoms you mention don't seem all that odd in life, and anxiety makes us focus on things more than they deserve, so maybe you are anxious but aren't noticing it. Who knows?
Avatar m tn I been experiencing those symptoms for nearly 4 months + and as a result done 2x stresstest,an echo,bloodtest,24 hour holter and several ecgs.Doctors said it could be anxiety related but most of the time,i felt those symptoms 1st then only i had anxieties that something else might be causing those symptoms,is it possible to have those symptoms even if one is not in an anxious state..is it due to sensitised nervous system ? Thanks.
Avatar f tn What could cause chest pain that has the symptoms of a possible heart attack but isn't that? Ten years ago, when I was 38, I was teaching a class when I got excruciating, constricting chest pain. My left arm tingles, and my jaw had the same terrible pain and it felt "locked up." The "attack" lasted 5-10 minutes. My jaw hurt for days, and my chest and ribs felt sore, as well. When this happened, a coworker took my pulse and it wasn't even fast.
Avatar f tn Given your age I'm guessing, without knowing, that you've been going to the ER mostly. It's very unlikely at your age you have a heart problem, but you could have a ton of other things (or nothing at all but some vague symptoms -- if you are an anxiety sufferer, and you say you're not, our nervous systems tend to exaggerate the parts of us that don't feel so good).
