I've been experiencing a lot of anxiety over the past few months and it has finally decreased, but I am left with a headache at my temples that has seemed to last all week, super tense muscles in my neck, and now varicose veins above and below my eyes. The varicose veins freak me out. Has anyone else experienced them around your eyes? Will they eventually go away?
Hi
I was at the doctors and calling the hospital almost everyday in March worried about various things I was in a state of worry all the time she prescribed me with sertaline.
I then I banged the side of my head at the the temple area, the following day I started having a sore head for 2 weeks I was panicking at work one day as I had pains in my chest and felt
Like I couldn't breathe, I called the hospital as my sore head was still there they suggested I called my own doctor i did she told me to take ibrufonen for 1 week and also gave me diazepam to calm down I didn't take the diazepam as i was taking to much at the time through out March I called the hospital 3 times.
My sore head slightly disappeared then on Saturday I was eating something really chewing and it came back I went to the doctor yesterday and she said it sounds like I could have damaged the muscle at the side of my head and have Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMD, TMJ) because my jaw clicks a lot and because i have been stressed and anxious I had my jaw all tense, it make me worry having a sore head iam currently taking naproxen now only took 2 so hopefully they work. Sorry for the big message but wanted to explain it all x
Ehhh... That's awful. I clench my jaw a lot too I don't realize I'm doing it until my jaw hurts. Do your muscles sort of sting too? Like since my anxiety has been around, it's like all of my muscles are more tender and they will hurt and kind of sting every once in a while. They don't get weak, just an odd feeling.
I don't realise iam clenching my jaw either unless I think about it being sore, I feel my muscles are all right when I have been anxious, my muscles feel weird but yeh not weak but think it has a lot to do with being tense, anxiety can do a lot to your body it's horrible
