Tough couple of months. Health anxiety went through the room. My two big symptoms and worries were the worst they ever were. Chest pains (worried about heart) - had a thorough check and everything find. Lots of nausea (worried about stomach cancer) - had a thorough check and everything fine.
So I'm almost back to normal in my feelings for these things, plus I'm now controlling panic attacks without medication which is great. But one final thing remains...
I'm an incredibly fit person, but since this has been happening, I took about a month off from exercise.
Now getting back into it, when I start my cardio, my heart rate will spike very quickly, and I will be sweating and out of breath very quickly. A couple of months ago it would take 10 minutes + of hard work before I started feeling like this.
Obviously I'm still concerned about my heart - can exercise cause a spike in anxiety symptoms like this?
