Hi everyone. Hope you're all doing well, I've had a great few months, my HA has all but disappeared! However, last night was a bit of a weird one for me, and I just want to know if anyone else has had this. On Wednesday I went to the gym for the first time in FOREVER. I was on the rowing machine and worked myself quite hard. I felt fine the rest of Weds, then yesterday I started getting the "pain" which doesn't bother me because I know what caused it. I felt totally great otherwise, but around 2pm I noticed that my heartrate had increased and I was having difficulty concentrating and my arms and legs felt like sort of "jelly". I wasn't too bothered but I had dinner and I felt like my appetite had gone down to zero and I had to force myself to eat. I went to bed and didn't sleep because I was too hot, my heart was still racing, my limbs still felt weird and my stomach did a little too. I've got a phobia of vomiting and I started worrying about norovirus since a few people in my area have it. I was up til around 5am and woke up at 8.30. My limbs still have this weird "tingling" feeling and I'm too scared to eat just incase! I should point out I had a cup of coffee and 2 big cups of tea but that's not unusual.
It all sounds like classic anxiety but I'm not sure if it IS or if it's a result of going to the gym or am I actually fighting off some sort of virus?
I know it's all a bit vague but it has happened to me several times before, feeling like this even if I'm not anxious about anything...
