Hi everyone,
I'm new on here. A year ago i started experiencing symptoms which I now believe to be related to Health Anxierty recently diagnosed through CBT. I had a viral eye infection that left me quite unwell for a few weeks.
After that I believe the anxiety damaged my nervous system somehow and I had a series of symtpoms such a tingling, prickling sensations, weakness in arms and legs, migrainous visual aura, pain in my chest, shoulders and wrists, all joints in fact. However, all this happened ONLY IN MY RIGHT HAND SIDE OF MY BODY.
You could literally draw a line down the centre of me. Of course they MRI's me at first both the brain and spine....guess what no abnormalities.
i'm starting to thinks its related to HA. Most recently I have the feeling of al ump in my throat, feel like I'm swallowing air alot. It really bothers me, and now acid reflux and acid in my stomach.
Since the CBT I started in Nov i have reduced the tingling prickling and weakness sensations greatly, even the chest pain has gone. I just can't kick the swallowing thing its driving me nuts x
Any advice?
