So, for the past month I've been getting these random rashes that come and go. If I scratch them, the rash becomes about 10x more noticeable. I'm trying to reassure myself this is anxiety, but I've never had this happen before. By the way, sometimes scratching the rash will make hives appear. My GP looked at them for literally a second and said they were just stress induced. Has anyone else had rashes that just come and go? My big fear is lymphoma especially since the right side of my face is slightly swollen and refuses to go down. I had an abscessed tooth that i got pulled approximately 3 weeks ago, but my face is still swollen. I can't tell if it is my lymph nodes that are causing the swelling or something else.
I'm also having this weird feeling in my head. It's really hard to put into words, but I suppose the best way I can describe it is like I'm in a light headed fog. It's really hard to concentrate and it seems I'm like this all the time. I was really worried about a brain tumor, but I've had 2 neurological exams and a CT scan all of which came back clear. I'm trying to convince myself this is anxiety and I don't need an MRI. The best evidence of it being anxiety is that it mostly goes away when I take Ativan, but I don't want that to be my go to fix. Sorry for the rambling post, but has anyone else had this kind of weird brain feeling? It's really scary and I feel like I'm losing my mind. I'm going in for a psych eval in a couple of days so I really hope I can get all of this sorted out. Would just really comfort me if I knew I wasn't the only one!
