Hi guys well I've been having these terrible terrible symptoms here lately and I just don't know what to do. I have been having these symptoms since last December and they haven't let up. Ok so here are my symptoms muscle twiches everywhere every day weird vibrations feel weak a lot have aches all over weird head feelings ear ringing and poping which I reduced a lot I can say also heart palpitations feels like throat is closing in weird abdominal noises and bloating sounds did also find weird white stuff in stool tingly feelings sometimes think somethings wrong with my eyes but don't last long dry mouth and dry nose when I wake up should also note that twitching is mostly noticeable when resting as compared to moving around. I am only 19 and I have been so terrified here lately have cryed a lot because I'm fearing the worse I will also say that I have not ever had anxiety or if I did I didn't know it. I have been thinking and what not and I think its all down to my stomach although I'm not sure. Before all this happened it was just heart palpitations because I was afraid I. Was gonna have a heart attack well then one day I had a stabbing pain beneath my left peck went to the doctors he diagnossed me with a ulcer which I know it was because for one he only pressed around on me and two I would have been in way more pain but my family does have acid reflux which is possible that I have to every since that night tho is where my symptoms started to grow I took the docs advice used the medication whiched stopped the pain but now i have all this first twitching started in chest at left peck but after I was dumb read some scary things I got them all over now and I have tryed to ignore them but can't as it happens when I'm not anxious too I did have full blown panic attacks but I have stopped having them as well because I know worrying to much will only make things worse. In sorry that this is terribly long but I had to get all that out there. I will also that my co using broke a thermometer after thanksgiving and I picked up to dispose of it another thing that freaks me out. Anways guys/girls I would really appreciate some advice or help. I have been to ER in which they ran blood tests urine test and EKG which all came out fine last blood test i did she checked vitamin d which were low now got pills for them but she didn't check all other vitamins and what not sadly I would do more test from docs but I'm broke and have no insurance I try telling my family to hel.p. me but they just say what the doctors do that im and there's no way I am I try to tell them guys my symptoms aren't stopping or that at times its like there getting worse really makes me wish I didn't live in U.S. so that i could have been check by now if I was in UK or Canada. I'm sorry guys/girls for all this rambling just go's to show how freaked out I am but if anyone can help or give some good advice I would appreciate it this place is kinda my shot for the time being anyway s hope you all get better too
I would go to the dr make sure nothing is wrong with your stomach once that is cleared up RELAX.. your probably stressing yourself out I have allllll of those symptoms with my anxiety except the white stuff in stool . I could go to sleep and wake up and I feel my legs vibrating and it's so so weird I was scared at first but I am now used to it. I'm always weak or if I'm in bed too long and I finally get up my legs will start shaking if I'm standing.. my legs arms everything is always aching my mouth is constantly dry( drink plenty of water or Gatorade) my throat does the same thing but don't panic just going to make it worst just accept it. I have all of that I'm telling you this so you know your not alone and it's ok.. just make sure you do get your stomach checked out one more time to put your mind at ease. And see about getting some anxiety meds maybe.. I think that is my next move because I am tired of going through this.. keep your head up ❤️
I have almost every single one of those symptoms. It's anxiety and I feel most of those every day as well. Try meditation take your vitamins and see if you can relax that may help ease your symptoms but don't freak out if you get your symptoms when you calm most of us still do.
All of it sounds like anxiety
Hello Joseph! I am in the exact same position. It is so terrifying I know but PLEASE trust me on this one! I have experienced literally all of those symptoms and I convinced myself I had some sort of life threatening disease whether that be diabetes or even cancer! I’m 14 so the chances of me (and you!) of having something wrong is very very slim. I know when you are in that state of mind it is hard to think otherwise but I please know that all of the symptoms you are describing are all classic signs of anxiety. You’re not dying and if you were then the tests would have come back abnormal. We are here for you and we won’t let anything bad happed! Here’s some things that help me when I am anxious:
-stay off phone! The temptation of googling symptoms is real I know but it won’t do any good!
-there is an excellent book called “mind over matter” that my therapist told me to get and it has saved my life countless times
-concentrate on your breathing. Even if you think you are breathing slow, and you think you are ‘calm’ the chances are that you are breathing too shallow! Put one hand on your chest and the other on your stomach and concentrate on filling up your stomach and then your chest. Lack of oxygen can cause all sorts of symptoms!
-make sure you get lots of rest. Lack of sleep can cause havoc on your mental state and ability to think rationally!
-have something to concentrate on, the thing that has helped me the most is a toy called a “tangle” if you look on amazon you’ll find it!
-KEEP DISTRACTED! By focusing on your symptoms, the symptoms will only get worse. If you are concentrating on something else you will find yu won’t even notice them!
These things might not help you at all but I know how distressing health anxiety can be and if I knew I helped even a tiny bit it would make me so happy!
Keep me updated
