Hi all,
I know this seems a bit 'out there', but a lot of the symptoms I have seem to tie in with the disease, could it be possible? I don't remember having a tick bite though or rash. I'm afraid to ask the doctor as I think they are getting a bit fed up with me now. I went the weekend again with my lightheaded disconnected feeling, and they said it's anxiety and I might need to see a counselor if it continues to take over my life. I've had an MRI scan and blood tests and they are all fine.
Basically all this started when I began to worry about my eye floaters, which still bother me. I'm seeing an eye specialist and having them looked into being treated with a laser. I'm only 29 and the ophthalmologist said I have a partial vitreous detachment, which is not serious, just an annoyance. She said they will settle down eventually, but usually (not always), older people get this condition. Since then, I can't stop thinking about them and even when I don't I'm still light headed and feel like I'm living in a dream world. Is it anxiety causing this depersonalization or something more sinister?
I really can't go on like this, I've been this way since February..it's a complete nightmare and i can't relax.
Any advice on what to do? Pursue more tests or believe the doctors and go down the counselor route?
Really appreciate your advice.
Carl
