Hello everyone.
I am fairly new to this HA thing. Although I don't have much to compare to, I would say I have this pretty severely. I am 27 and a mother, and all of my fears stem from neurological disorders (which it appears a number of other people on here have as well). This all started with a 4 month string of nausea that began in Feb of 2012, and all other symptoms have just sort of popped up after that. My biggest complaint is CONSTANT (when I say constant I mean just about every waking moment of my life) feelings of air hunger, like that wonderful, glorious, satisfying breath is constantly eluding me. Also,I have a painful chest and ribcage all the time. It scares me to death.
More recently, I have developed muscle pain, sporadic, body-wide muscle twitching and a tremor. I understand that these can all be symptoms of anxiety. But I just can't shake the thought that I have some crazy neurological disorder that will be the end of me!:scared15:
I have seen countless specialists (Pulomonologist, Nephrologist, GI, Phsyiatrist, Ortho, Neuro for an emg) and countless visits to my GP (who is a lovely, lovely woman. NP who use to work solely as a Psychiatric NP, and has been nothing but wonderful to me). The only thing that they have ever found was slight carpal tunnel and some disc changes in my neck, which no one believe has anything to do with anything.
Anyway, I was just wanting to introduce myself, and see if anyone's physical anxiety symptoms (like mine mentioned above) presented in a more chronic fashion, with little, if any break?
