Ive had anxiety for a few years. Random attacks ive learned to deal with but i think my anxiety is potentially getting out of control. Since this started about 4 years ago I haven't been my normal self like most people who suffer from it. Recently in last 6 months I been having breathing attacks like asthma, increased blood pressure 140s over 90s. Alot of bloating, weight gain and urethra pain in my penis. I have seen urologists, done breathing tests, and have seen cardiologists for a stress test of my heart. Everything is cominf back normal. Are all these linked to anxiety? Does anyone else get bloated and have penis pain?
Yes I’ve had the same symptoms in the last three months. Usually when my brain is more active. I’ve also been having pain in my left hip/groin
Have you had tests ran as well from urologists and cardiologists? Its very overwhelming.
Hi, ive had anxiety for over a year, and although not getting panic attacks anymore i feel the same about having it taken over my life.
I definatly feel the bloating feeling and fullness in stomach it has actually been something i've been worried about recently,although im sure theres nothing to worry about. And yes, I have also felt the penis pain, specifically urethra pain, which does make you wonder about an STD but the pain does subside. Weird what anxiety can do eh.
Goodluck!
Thanks for replying its very weird indeed. My urologist is checking for stds even though I been with one partner for 8 years. I guess anything Is possible though. I just wish I could get anxiety under control.
I get the same also I’m on venlafaxine and at night take 50mg of quatiapine for sleep I used to be on fluoxetine and never really had the urethra pain but it’s got much worst since stopping
Hi Justin
I get the bloating weight gain and urethra pain also have you had a urine test ? And does your pain affect your urine colour etc at all ?
