donate your HA symptoms here please!!

[justbananas]

if this is in the wrong place or has already been covered - pls feel free to move me or let me know.

i know a big part of the HA section of the forum is searching other threads for your symptoms and/or repeating things others may have brought up many times before. i thought it would be beneficial for some if we had an organized thread where everyone who's interested can list their symptoms - either past, current, or all.

i know we've done some polls and questionnaires of this nature but i thought it could be good to just have an open ended thread where you can list what ails you, and be somewhat specific in your descriptions and people can scroll through here and find someone to ask questions or bounce ideas off of, etc. and sort of compare and contrast in the interest of seeing the depth and breadth of specifically HA symptoms. this might already be done better elsewhere - but the other threads i saw were more like yes no yes no set up whereas i think lists and then dialogues regarding each others lists might prevent some repeat threads and having to hunt down symptom info. again - if it's already been done, shut me down! :whistles:

[justbananas]

for example - many of the headaches threads or symptoms page list headaches and causes - but having a symptom list from a headache sufferer with details, ie 'daily one sided headaches with dull shooting pains' - it helps everyone see that these specific issues can be just anxiety and that you don't have some special unique crazy headache. it's good to share wherever possible because it puts things into perspective, in my opinion. i'll post my list in a few minutes. when i pluck up the energy!!

[justbananas]

always had a bit of HA but 3 or so years ago, during a health scare with my cousin - became convinced that i had a brain tumor. that set off a chain of the following events/symptoms:

-daily one sided dull or sometimes stabbing pains in my temple from december 06 until march 07. pins and needles feeling, once or twice the pain would worsen when blowing nose, coughing, etc. otherwise just these daily headaches.
-march 07 got an awesome job at an awesome magazine, and months went by when i felt GREAT. i was distracted, and therefore my brain tumor clearly did not exist since my symptoms went away completely.
-july 07 - not going into full details but found swollen lymph nodes in neck and doc wanted to do biopsy after performing ultrasound and seeing enlarged nodes. i basically ruined my summer worrying about this. turned out i had a skin infection which caused the nodes to enlarge and i hadn't put two and two together. i did a round of antibiotics and then a CT scan, which came back clear.
-not long after that i had a dizzy spell outside and felt faint and nauseus, prob just anxiety? i also was convinced my coughing was something in my lungs so went in for an xray - normal, no longer really worried about lungs or lymph nodes for the time being. phew.
-i went i guess another OK stretch of time - but then started getting pins and needles and MS fears the past few months. i was getting weird heart palps and i got a huge one in the bath, that felt like it radiated through my whole body. it scared me so much it launched my first massive PA. this was in november and i've not felt well since then. i have on and off dizziness, weird sensory issues, nausea, and lately a bout of seemingly neuro signs. my feet (mostly left foot) are buzzing/vibrating .. my right temple aches again.. now my right eye just started aching also. and i'm going into a downward spiral with this one. my left ear hurts so maybe i have ear issues also .. uggggggg

so those are my current symptoms. oh and of course i keep convincing myself that i can't recall names of movies, characters, etc. but it might just be anxiety not letting me think clearly? like i force myself to do this or something? am also feel various tingles and numbness in the same spots around my body, ie left side of chin, right cheek.. left thigh.. crawly numb sensations. WHAT IS THAT. would love to shake this current round.

[CJH86]

Okay i'll pen down a few of mine that seem to be less covered/more obscure/specific....

-Depersonalisation/derealisation when in certain light/environmental settings...e.g. busy places, supermarket with dull lighting..leading to pressure feeling in head and inability to focus.
-Sharp pains which last for a couple of seconds in either or both sides of my head.
-Feeling that my left leg is unsteadier or weaker than my other leg.
-Feeling that parts of my face are numb even though they are not actually numb to touch.
-Feeling sick when waking up in morning.
-Sharp pain in left of chest lasting a few seconds which is above the surface of the ribs and not 'deep' within the rib cage.
-Inability to focus vision, or it feels like an effort to...like daydreaming.
-Forgetfullness and inability to spell words which leads to me constantly testing my self for memory recall (in fear of having a neurodegenerative disorder)
-Feeling that i am never getting enough air into my lungs, gulping air and symptoms such as shoulder pain/chest pain/stomach aches resulting from this.
-twitch in neck due to tension when i try nd hold my head still

and probably many many more:D

[wiskersonkittens]

OK -- I will do my best with this one . .. I have a HUGE list. I have suffered anxiety all my life it seems, but back in the day my #1 symptom was always shortness of breath. However, all these things happened in the span of a year after my grandmother died . .. *Please note I am reading down the list of symptoms from anxietycentre.com so I can remember them all:

Back pain, primarily lower.
Paleness
Body temp. increasing and decreasing
Burning sensations in head, also had it down my back, around my ears, too. -- went to ER with this one, CAT scan normal.
Skin sensitivity and itchy skin
Chest pain and tightness -- been to ER twice for this, all tests normal.
Exhaustion/worn out -- I feel this all the time. I am overwhelmed and burned out physically and emotionally.
Clumsiness -- I drop things more now.
Cold sensations in certain areas of my body.
Craving sweets.
Dizziness -- had this for a whole month before I was diagnosed with complicated grief. MRI of brain - normal.
Minor body zaps here and there.
Excessive energy -- I wish I had this one more, I could actually get something done!
Falling sensations -- I have had these at night right as I am falling asleep. My body doesn't jolt, it is just a sensation either in my chest or my head.
Feeling just strange/odd. Like something wasn't right.
Achyness
Heart palpitations -- I think I put the "p" in palpitations, I get this often, too. (I have MVP)
Decreased sex drive -- too busy worrying and too exhausted to deal with sex right now.
Lump in throat -- yep, I got this once for about a week when I was afraid I contracted Rabies from a bat that only was flying above me and never bit me.
Muscles issues galore -- tightness, stiffness, pain, soreness, twitching . .
Neck pain, tightness and stiffness.
Night sweats -- shortly after my grandmother died.
Numbness -- had this in my cheek recently and really freaked me out. I also had this in my legs for a couple of months after I was bitten by a Rabid cat several years ago!
Pounding heart -- Lord, yes! It got real bad after my grandmother died. Had to call 911 cause I was having that with palpitations, light headedness . . . vitals/EKG, normal.
Restless legs
Shooting and stabbing pains in head
Sore scalp
Jumpy
Stomach issues -- but they aren't my usual issues.
Tension headaches, eye pressure, pain behind the eyes.
Trembling
Unsteadiness/sometimes feel off balance. -- mostly on my right side.
Need to pee a lot
Warm spells -- especially in certain areas of my body.
Weak legs and arms
Distorted, foggy, and blurred vision
Burning eyes
Eye tricks -- although I am not quick to say that if I see a shadow out of the corner of my eye that it is my imagination. Sometimes I have wondered if being in an anxious/exhausted state makes us see things that aren't so imaginary. Now, you probably think I am crazy . ..
Sensitivity to light
Seeing spots
Depth perception feels wrong
TMJ -- I have been diagnosed with this. I clench my teeth and grind them all the time and I get sore jaws, headaches, neck pain, and so forth from this.
Depersonalization
Pain in ears
Plugged ears/heaviness in ears
Ringing in ears, decreased hearing -- I have been diagnosed with Otosclerosis, so this is more than an anxiety symptom, I am losing my hearing. However, I am sure anxiety and TMJ aren't helping the issue.
Difficulty concentrating -- and my short term memory is worse.
Sometimes have difficulty finding the right words, or I stutter or just can't get a word out.
Forgetfulness
Obsessions about symptoms
Spaced out feelings
Trapped in my mind feelings
Feelings of anger or impatience -- I get this a lot
Depression
Metallic/blood taste in my mouth
Excess saliva
Lack of appetite - lost a lot of weight in the beginning.
Tight throat
Insomnia
Jolting awake
Trouble falling asleep -- sometimes due to thoughts, but also falling sensations, sometimes so strong that I feel I have to hold on to something, and I there have been times I have felt like I have stopped breathing.
Waking up in a panic attack
Fears: heart attack, having a serious undetected illness, something happening to me in public (causing a scene), dying, never amounting to anything -- life is being wasted.

Whew! It is hard to believe going through all this the doc and neuro say it is all anxiety/stress/grief related. I guess all in all, I've been there, done that, and don't want to do it again. :)

[justbananas]

i also get that falling feeling when going to sleep. it bounces back and forth between a feeling of falling (and not just the typical jolting fall thing that people feel normally) and a sense that not enough oxygen is going to my brain. like a rush from my heart to my head and neither is getting enough oxygen. it sucks. also throughout the day and night i hear clicking in my head, which i'm thinking has to do with my ears.

[wiskersonkittens]

Oh, yes! The clicking! I forgot that one! Awhile back I had a horrible chest cold and I was sitting here at the puter when I suddenly heard this click, click, click sound when I took a deep breath. I thought, "this can't be good!" So, I go to my doctor and he can't hear it in my chest. It lasted about a month and I noticed when I was under high anxiety the clicking would get louder and louder -- it was like going with my pulse, but not always. I went to the doctor again and again he couldn't hear anything and told me some people are more sensitive to the feelings and noises their bodies make. He wasn't concerned about it at all. I believe it has resolved, but I think I have heard it occasionally. I still wonder what it was and where it was coming from. My aunt, who is a nurse, thought it had something to do with phlem in my chest area that when air goes through it it made the click sound. I was worried it was my heart because I have MVP and I had never heard the "click" associated with it. I thought perhaps I had coughed too hard and messed up a valve or something. Really! But, again, doc didn't hear it when he listened to my heart. I guess I'll never know where the mysterious clicking sound came from . .. I would just prefer it not come back. :)

[justbananas]

my clicking is in my head or ears i think .. it has dulled since i've calmed down a little but when im anxious it's every 20 seconds or so i hear the clicking. i think it's my eustachian tubes or whatever you call them in my ears. needless to say i found a bunch of creepy stuff when i googled so i stopped that and the clicking seems to have died down.

[wiskersonkittens]

Yes, I remember when I went to the ER when I felt a burning sensation on the top of my head. What got me to that point was that I googled "burning sensation in head" and got such frightening results!! I totally freaked! The nurse in the hospital told me to NEVER do that. There is so much misinformation online -- more than we realize. It's better to let the experts handle it. I have not looked up another symptom -- unless it was on here, or under TMJ .. the less frightening things, and my symptoms have always been here.

I still think my clicking was due to my bad chest cold, and it could have affected my ears. I have moved forward, on to the next symptom! :)

[SocialTool]

This is my first post here.....this thread is SO important because we won't feel so alone in all of this....here are my symptoms:

-neck/shoulder pain
-fast heartbeat
-weird "numb feeling" from my spine up to my head
-ringing in one ear and hearing heartbeat in ear
-afraid that I will "lose control" and go insane
-afraid of death
-afraid that I will be anxious about being anxious
-a weird "brain-vision" feeling when I try to sleep...like my brain is moving inside of my skull and I can see it
-forgetfulness
-afraid there is something wrong with me because I am not as sharp as I used to be
-unable to focus
-heaviness in legs
-spasms in my eyelid or eyebrow or temple
-shortness of breath

Because of these symptoms, I have thought that I have had the following:
-heart attack
-tumor
-stroke
-blood clot
-aneurysm
-insanity

[justbananas]

what sort of eye floaters do you guys get? i get like a few dull floaters, which if i pay attention, annoy the crap out of me. my eye exams have been fine.. what causes them!

[viremarthius]

-Nausea
-Bloated feeling
-Tension headaches
-Bad Neck
-Jolting awake as I'm drifting off.
-When I started Celexa(Sp) I would sing in my head all day for reason, lol. Got off that quick
-Tingling in hands
-Cold hands
-Clammy hands.
-Yawning
-Insomnia
-Hot flashes
-Chills
-Heart Palps
-Chest pains


That's All I can think of right now. These are usually not at the same time, but rather over the years.

[justbananas]

the nauseau thing i have dealt with by having small meals constantly throughout the day. the thought of a warm or big or substantial meal makes me sick sometimes so i have yogurt a lot - it's easy to eat and also the bacteria in the yogurt settles my stomach. i add chopped almonds and berries to the yogurt. so i'll have that.. then an hour or two later i'll have crackers with cheese. then i'll eat some pepper slices. then i'll have a smoothie i make by blending milk and fruit and protein power. then i'll have peanut butter with an apple. just lots of little bits throughout the day. it also keeps your blood sugar stable so you don't get so much dizziness or nausea. i call it my david bowie on drugs diet. he spent a good chunk of time subsisting on green peppers and milk so.. y can't i.

[NoPoet]

I like that, the "David Bowie on drugs diet" heh heh.

I am finding that the heavier, greasier or very dry stuff is harder to tolerate. For some reason I have been finding bread too rich and sickly but I managed a pork sarnie this morning lol; I'm making myself eat sandwiches to overcome any possible fear of bread (never thought I'd say that!).

I also find hot or warm food harder to stomach.

Fruit and veg isn't so bad. I can always eat cornflakes as well. My appetite returns somewhat in the evenings when I'm more relaxed so I try to take advantage where possible.

[june]

Feeling hot/cold, like I was going to faint
Fear I will vomit,
Giddiness and spaced shivering,
Aching joints
Pressure in my head
Crawling under skin
Tingling in hands
Fuzzy head
Neck pain,
Disorientation
Many visionary symptoms including floaters, itchy eyes, eye pain, watery eyes
My head hurts / nose / face /jaw / earache / Etc. etc. etc.
Pains in my hands – the bones hurt.
Rash on my back quite severe.
Back of thighs (the bit you sit on) hurt – is this thrombosis?
Back of my head aches – sometimes painful to turn my head
My stomach jumps as if someone is poking it.
Soft part of side back / front – discomfort – feels swollen?
Pain in the back of my calves.
Sometimes - Pain (not indigestion) / ache in my breast bone / under arms and in breasts.
Lots of belching – bubbles breaking in my stomach.
Tickly cough - as if water went down the wrong way.
And much more
This is a good idea - as long as the lists are genuine and not taken from a printed list:blush:

[esweet]

I'm new here, and so far I'm impressed! I wanted to post my most likely stress-related symptoms (present and past), as it seems therapeutic, and many of them are echoed by you all. I am bipolar, by the way, which seems to exacerbate my anxieties, which are largely medical in nature.

Heart Palpitations: diagnosed as stress-related Premature Atrial Contractions
Moles: Doctors pointed out moles I should keep an eye on, leading me to the thoughts I have skin cancer and am dying...these aren't caused by the anxiety obviously, but they CAUSE me much anxiety!
Aches & Pains: Every time I am having anxiety I grasp on to these as heart attacks, thrombosis, whatever
Panic Attacks: Sweating, nausea, faintness, etc.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome: Again, diagnosed as stress related (and diet, too.)
Itchiness/Bumps: I get hives or small bumps on my skin sometimes, often recurring in the same spots, that may be stress related.
Twitching Eye: Maybe from spending so much time on the PC and indoors, but possibly also from anxiety, I have read.
Inability to Concentrate
Nervous Stomach

Researching on the Internet drives my stress levels through the roof, for the reasons posted on this site. I was recently diagnosed with a bad lipid profile (cholesterol, etc) so that's a brand new stress. I am currently in once per week counseling for my mental issues, but waiting for each new appointment seems like eternity. Hopefully there is a medicine to help me even out, as I feel like I am going crazy!

Been on Floraxtine for nearly 4 weeks now and finding it very very hard.

[lauraw]

Great thread, just reassuring that we are all experiencing the same symptoms and therefore its more likely to be anxiety rather than anything else we all fear!

[yvonne_uk_98]

hi,

great idea, here symptoms I have and they come and go.

Panic attacks,
nausea
headaches
dropped lip on right side
numb down one side,
slurred speech (no one else notices this)
shakes
dizziness
frighten to go to sleep
Depression


I have got the drooped lip and numbness checked out, I had mri scans, back puncture tests, results due to panic attacks and stress.

I thought I was having a stroke.
found out I was not, I know now when I get the symptoms of stroke its the start of some of my panic attacks and stress. not all my panic attacks are the same.

it's good to know that your not the only one going through these symptoms. thanks.

Yvonne xx

[Chrissie21]

this is a great idea. I am not alone i now realise!
headaches
dizziness/unsteadiness
blurred vision
lack of eye focus
jumpy eyes
weakness
breathlessness
agonising shoulder and arm pains
chest pains
acid reflux
morning/noon/night anxiety
constant fearful thoughts
head zaps
stomach pains
no apetite
nausea

these are all the ones I can think I have had in the last 48 hrs... i am sure there are more.

These amount to fears of:
heart attack
anureysum
stroke
brain tumour

I could go on and on but those are the main worries. The symptoms I have are
major tremors in my hands
brisk reflexes
muscle twitching
palpatations
short of breath
head rush when standing at times
Headaches
leg pains
bruising
BP rises when anxious

I am sure that I am missing alot. It is so horrible because whenever one thing gets ruled out by tests and a doctor something else pops up. I just want to get better.
