Hi , I am new to this so please bear with me , this will be a long one.. I have recently had what seems to be panic attacks .. i had the feeling of dizziness at first , then a couple of weeks later , whoosh , something flying up my body, dizziness and felt like my heart was coming out of my chest.. i was terrified.. went to the docs who said i may have vertigo , two weeks later i was playing golf, suddenly i felt strange, feeling nausea, feeling cold and chilled, clammy , weak legs , then whoosh, something flew up my body again , heart pounding and fell to the floor , when i got myself together there was a high pitch whistling in my ear which is still present after 7 weeks... i went to the docs , who sent me for an ecg and bloods.. they came back clear... a week went by and i was getting more and more anxious mainly due to the tinnitus and migraines, i went to the hostpital who done a further ecg and bloods which were clear , they refered me to an ent who said he could find nothing wrong and thought the tinnitus was stress induced... in my wisdom i googled.. i was convinced i had a brain tumour or had cancer that had spread to my brain , i was frantic...i seen another ent who performed an audiology test and said i have not got a tumour... i was convinced i had lung cancer... i seen my works doc due to being off work for 6 weeks... i told him everything and all my concerns about cancer... he was convinced i had panic attacks and anxiety... even prior to all this i did not feel anxious.. he told me cancer would not present the symptoms i have... i still feel i have underlying illness... i also feel i am being irrational due to the fact i have seen two ent specialists, two a and e docs a,my own gp and works gp.. which if they were concerned about my feelings of cancer , would of picked up on something and sent me for further tests, and im quite sure my blood would of shown something up ... i am presenting with all anxiety symptoms , my new one is head rush or zaps which scare me ... am i being irrational and anxious , some advice would be good
thanks
