Lately I have been very light headed whenever I get up, Ive been having gastrointestinal issues, and I feel like Im going to die and that im not real. I can barely even take a walk without thinking that Im gonna die. My blood pressure has been high lately too. Do you think I have some heart disease or failure? I was very active and healthy before all this.
An example of what my lightheadness feels like: try lying off a couch with your head down for a minute, quickly stand up. That wierd sensation is what Im feeling.
How high is your blood pressure?
What triggered all these issues?
I cannot say that it’s anxiety, but I’m quite certain that it’s NOT heart failure.
hey i wouldnt worry. the dizziness is probably due to high blood pressure. i get it when i stand up too , i have low blood pressure. keep drinking water throughout the day. anxiety causes these feelings too. dont worry about your heart its very likely its Not that x
This is why Googling symptoms is a terrible idea. You will find the most serious diseases with the most common/benign symptoms.
I am doing it obsessively myself. I know it’s not healthy and it’s making me anxious, but I still do it!
Somebody stop me.
Light-headedness can often be due to low blood pressure.
Whenever im anxious it gets in the 140s and it never used to do that, it would stay in the 120s. So yeah idk.
I haven’t been on this site in quite a few months and am noticing a sudden influx of posts regarding these types of symptoms. This, along with the fact that you basically described perfectly what I have been going through the last week leads me to believe it is a constant, underlying worry that is getting to you without you really knowing it. Anxiety can do some crazy things to your body. I went to a yoga class a few months ago and once I took a good half hour to really focus, I saw just how much tension I hold all the time and how fast my brain runs without me even thinking anything of it. We are in a time of nationwide panic right now and I think it is getting to everyone. Obviously you should still get checked by a doctor as soon as you can just to be sure, but I think you’re okay. I have been completely out of energy lately, out of breath and can’t walk my dog, lightheaded all the time and shaking especially at night. God bless you
