I am long time sufferer of HA. I am 40, male, smoker and not taking meds. For the last month or so I have been getting a combination of symptoms that are worrisome. I get a really cold right hand, headache, slight dizziness, nausea and sleepiness that can't be explained. I am not feeling anxious or in any particular situation that usually causes anxiety in me when this happens. After a few hours it settles down or goes away completely. Sometimes my heart is racing but it is hard to tell which of these is from anxiety vs. which is anxiety from the symptoms. I just had complete blood work (CBC) and nothing was found. My doctor listened to my heart and lungs and said nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have not lost any weight. This cycle is terribly concerning to me and would have sent me to the ER in years past but I keep telling myself that the symptoms go away after a while so they must be anxiety but I am beginning to lose my resolve. My wife just looks at me like I am nuts when I try and talk to her about it. She is a very stoic German who is a great person but compassion and empathy are not her strongest traits. Does anyone else get something like this or have any tips? Thanks in advance and please respond as I am coming a bit unglued.
