For a while have been getting a 'wave' or burning tingly sensation that rises from abdomen up through chest and arms. Makes me feel like I am going to pass out but I go hot and then have to run to the loo. Had ECG at Drs, normal. Mentioned it at least on 3 visits, said anxiety (as usual). Been going on and off for about 12 months. It also happens on exertion like if I scrub a pan or got one the other day cleaning the cooker splash back (rubbing). I'm terrified it's my heart (especially because it came on during exertion). When I read about adrenaline rushes, sounds very similar but why would I get it on exertion?? I've been trying to clean this morning and it's happened several times already whereas I usually on get one episode a day at the moment.
I know I'm stressed as the last 6 months have been hard:
Lost job, toxic work environment
Elderly Mum ill and relies on me
Dog had pups and was extremely hard work
Just come back from 3 days looking after my SIL after an op
Worrying about getting another job and no motivation to look but need money but finding that very stressful because if the way I feel
I feel scared that I'm going to just keel over from a heart problem every day that is being put down to just anxiety.
Anyone suffered anything similar?
