Hi Guys!

I'm Paul, a 29 year old male from the UK. Since i was 18 i have experienced different illnesses-panic attacks,ocd,not being able to see properly (even though the eye doc said i had 20/20 vision) and stomache problems. Every time i get something new wrong with me, the old illness go's. The illnesses are so real but as i am never diagnosed with anything, i feel like a right hypochondriac.

My newest illness is pins and needles in my arms 24/7 and they now feel swollen and hurt also. I have an appointment with the neuro doctor in a few weeks but as ever i reckon it will be negative but I'm still worried to death in the mean time

Well, its been nice reading through the posts and i look forward to speaking to some of you guys soon.

Paul

Hello

I have had the numbness/pins and needles since anxiety started. Also had other symptoms that once checked out and been told ok then they seem to have gone. For example, chest pain and palpitations.. had an ECG/blood tests done and was all normal so they seem to have gone now. The headaches I had a while back have come back and pins and needles/numbness is worse than ever which I think is because work is tiring me out at the min.
Anyway to cut along story short my doc ref me to a neurologist while back and I am having an MRI scan next week so will let u know how goes.

I remember last year my friend who has been suffering from panic attacks/anxiety for years having a bad time with it and i couldn't really understand till it happened to me.

U r not on your own... this is something that has comforted me a great deal since finding this sight.

Take care xxx

Hi Paul
Great site to stumble on :) Some lovely people on here, you should join in the chat room as soon as you're allowed (think you have to be registered a few days). Sounds like you've found your way around already but if you haven't checked out the health anxiety thread it'd be a good place to go next. All the best x
Hey Sue, glad you've hit on a solution. Nice to meet you.
