Hi I have been struggling with chronic anxiety for months now. During and following I had a period of two bad colds November and January. The in between time I still had slight runny nose but not as severe, having a scratchy throat, and mouth sores. Ever since I cleared the cold in January I have continued with these slight allergy symptoms. No days free of. I have been under a lot of fear of oral cancer due to my past drinking. I’m just trying to figure out if you can manifest these symptoms with anxiety or not. I’m getting to the end of my rope and feeling desperate. I have researched this and find some link but want to hear from others who possibly experienced this.
I have been dealing with chronic sinus problems for about 2 years now. Basically everyday feels like I have sinusitis, swollen eyes, full face. Throbbing pains and a lot of congestion / balance problems. I am run down constantly. Sweats, shakes, headaches etc.
I developed anxiety and panic attacks as a result. Anxiety is worse in the mornings as the congestion is 10 fold worse.
I have seen maybe 7 ENT's over two years, a dental specialist and opticians and no one can find reason for these symptoms. I am 100% healthy?!
No amount of antibiotics, steroids or allergy preventatives have made a difference.
The only constant is this anxiety!
Everyday is just on repeat and can't break this cycle
Maybe thinking if I start Sertraline and get my anxiety a bit more under control, then the allergy symptoms might stop!
Often wondered if the allergy symptoms are because your body is just hypersensitive to everything with high anxiety.
I am exactly the same.. had a pile of blood tests done said I have anxiety.. from the minute I wake up til I go to sleep I feel like I have a constant cold
