Currently having a bit of HA atm. Wanted to see if anybody had any similar experiences.

I've had numerous symptoms crop up over the years due to health anxiety. Probably the most frequent involves burning of my hand and foot with some dizziness and sometimes some muscle ache. The burning and muscle aches are almost exclusive to the left side of my body. Seems to hit me at least once a year since my initial spiral over MS fears happened back in 2017. Had an MRI and was cleared by two neuros, but like many of you, I still worry.

So the question I want to ask of you, if you can relate, what symptoms do you experience somewhat regularly with your anxiety and stress? Have these symptoms been consistent over a period of time?? For me it's been 3 years and I still seem to get either some burning, some dizziness, or some muscle aches. Sometimes only one of them, sometimes all of them at the same time. I occasionally get these even when I don't feel that anxious but I'm aware that you can be anxious without necessarily realizing.

Please share your experiences.
Thanks!
