    just found this website - relieved or nervous?!

    Hi everyone,
    As I was searching again for 'head shocks' i came across this website.
    i was reading through the first steps page with a tear in my eye. have i finally found something i can put my symptoms down to?
    For the last 4 years or so I have suffered from nausea, shortness of breath, tingling in my hands, a couple of panic attacks, and more recently head pains, extreme sudden dizziness, hot flushes and cold sweats.

    A couple of years ago, I went to see my doctor with these symptoms, and he tested my oxygen level (i think that's what he did, he put something on my finger) and he said I was actually hyperventilating there and then. I had gone to the docs complaining (again) of nausea, and generally feeling unwell, when I felt nauseus, this lead me to panic, as I have a phobia of being sick, and so began the vicious circle.

    I am only 23, so don't know if this is common in people my age. I am not sure there are any triggers when my symptoms come on, but I am a very deep thinker, and negative thinker. however, I am outwardly very confident.

    any advice, I would greatly appreciate,

    Thanks x

    hi i'm new too, i'm 20 & really glad i found this thread.
    i get really dizzy alot, throw up alot recently and get lots of spaced out feelings. i thought some of this was due to epilepsy i am currently being diagnosed for or maybe to do with citalipram?
