Hey All,
My name is Lisa and I'm 26yo.
I've recently been struggling with anxiety (last 6wks) although its only in last 2-3wks doctor has said it is. I still haven't been able to accept it as that.
I've had racing heart, dizziness/lightheadedness, shakiness, pins and needles primarily in hands and feet, tightness of chest, nausea, full feeling in ears, loss of appetite, unbalanced feeling but no stumble etc, feeling flush, burning sensation in left foot, twitch/spasm mostly arm and neck, tiredness etc...
I fainted 6wk ago due to incorrect dose of meds for kidney infection. It all started the day after the faint. I've had multiple ecgs, blood tests, urine samples, xray, ct scan, ultrasound and 24hr holter monitor - all clear. Hence they tellme its anxiety.
I fear heart attack, brain tumor, something bad being wrong, dying, passing out etc..
I have just started cymbalta 30mg daily cos i just wasn'tcoping n was getting worse. I only had it prescribed yesterday so first does today. I was adamant to the idea of med but need to try something. I see doc on tThursfor referral for therapy etc
