Hello and firstly let me say what a great site this is!!
Well dont know wether I am suffering from anxiety or really am dying of MS / Brain Tumour / HIV / CJD?????? Cant think which one it is today!
Anyway my "symptoms" started about 5 months ago ( both my mother and sister have experienced anxiety before and ok now) generally feeling unwell, dizzy, unable to eat etc.....My job is quite stressful and recently have been noticing some more serious symotoms...chest pains diarrheoa at times and tiredness.
I have also been experiencing tingling in my left hand and left foot.... this sometimes I can put down to lying funny at night...
What I wanted to ask you is does anybody have a slow heart rate rather that a fast one during a "panic attack".....on occassions to what I think is having a panic attack my pulse slows right down to about 48.....being a nurse this frightens me!!!!! This happened 1am today ....I woke up and my hand had gone numb ( prob from lying on it) which sent me thnkin i was havin a stroke!..started sweatin thinkin i am gonna die in bed
I am normallya very busy person and lacking energy lately bothers me.I have been to doctors......waste of time....bloods taken ...nil.
he says if i want time off work come back...itsnot that i want time off .....i want to be better!!!
sorry bout the long post but does anyone else feel like this or am i a loonie! thanks in advance
