I have had numbness and tingling/burning hands the last couple of weeks, and a bit of a rash that just started in Sunday. I have had a challenging year and previously taking Buspar and Ativan, but decided to stop last fall. I think I must have had a recurrence of my anxiety and this is how it's presenting. I have other symptoms as well, but the recent tingling is new. Anyone else experiencing the same symptoms? This sucks.
Does it come and go or is it constant? What other symptoms do you have
It's pretty constant, fluctuates a bit in intensity, but seems to get worse when I try to sleep. I feel anxious too, and overwhelmed. Distracted and difficulty focusing.
How old are you? Have you tried taking an ativan to see if it goes away? I get burning and tingling hands and feet but it isnt constant. When i tried taking buspar a couple years ago i woke up and my whole body was burning. I felt like i was on fire.
tingling is very common with anxiety. If the rash doesn't go away, go have it checked out by a doctor. I always recommend people follow up with their doctor if they are getting any new symptoms. Hope you feel better soon
I'll give it a couple days and it doesn't go away I'll have it checked out. Thanks for your words of encouragement.👍 I'd like to just start feeling normal again. Been too long feeling anxious.
I'm 57. I may go see a doctor on this as I was trying to work on it alone and seem to be treading water. I hate taking meds but may have to go back there for awhile. Thanks for the help.
Yes, i dont like to take meds either but i had to start them again 3 weeks ago. Its the physical symptoms that make my anxiety so bad and they get worse everytime i have anxiety episodes. Have you always had anxiety and have you had alot of other physical symptoms with it? Right now i feel like im not getting enough oxygen and have to keep taking deep breaths i cant stop yawning and im lightheaded. I also get tingling, burning, hot and cold sensations, feeling weak like my legs will give out the list goes on
