feeling like im dieing physically!!
hi,
i have been getting pains in my chest and pins and needles in my left hand and foot,
i thought straight away heart attack or stroke.
i have been checked over by many doctors,
they all say im fine.
but i feel like im about to pop my clogs.
im only 19 and have had a lot of stress.
but its scaring me so much now its unreal.
please help,
oh by the way i have been told anxiety but can these symptoms be possible with anxiety???
Re: feeling like im dieing physically!!
Hi Martin - yes, all of those symptoms really can be caused by anxiety. I think if you've been medically checked and given the all-clear, then you can be assured that it anxiety that is creating the symptoms you describe. Have a look at the Symptoms page to the left of the forum, you'll see them listed there among many others.
You're young, and the doctors say that you are healthy - try not to let it occupy your mind too much. Concentrate instead on managing your anxiety and dealing with its source. :flowers:

Re: feeling like im dieing physically!!
I get I think the same thing. I also had many doctors tell me I am ok and I actully had a EKG done the other day. They said I am fine. Now I feel pains other places and it is driving me crazy. I was told they would give me some kind of medicine but I refused. I fear it would make it worse.
Re: feeling like im dieing physically!!
I would try not to worry too much about all of that even though it's scary. I actually started getting my anxiety/panic attacks with the very same symptoms as you, and I was also around 19. One day they were so bad and came out of nowhere that my now fiance took me to the ER because we thought I was having a heart attack because my heart was also beating really fast. Everything was fine, and it turns out I had a hyperventilation attack.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, I completely understand how you feel. Just please try not to worry about it - I would hate for you to have a hyperventilation episode like I did.
Just breathe, and if you need people to talk to, we're always here. :hugs:
