My dilemma since becomming a sufferer of anxiety and panic attacks is whether it is an anxiety/panic attack symotom or something else that makes me feel like this? I doubt Doctors and feel let down, particularly as when I first encountered anxiety the Doc said I had flu, at that time I didn't know what it was!
I have had a tummy bug for the past few days and have been really poorly but have turned a corner now as my appetite is back. Yesterday was the start of my monthly and right now I feel thick headed and tingly all over and a bit starey eyed and light headed a bit faint and slight stiff neck and one expression that has entered my head recently is weak at the knees? I suppose I am desperate for a Doctor to turn around and tell me that the reason I feel like this is because of blah blah blah and give me a prescription and hey presto normal again. Also when I feel this way I just think to myself its anxiety your fine, then I begin to doubt myself and think well maybe its not and I have something wrong with me and I have been dismissing it as an anxiety symptom.
Could anyone put my mind at ease? Thanks
