Re: pb's Health anxiety worries thread
I’ve managed not to post for a couple of weeks, but I now have a new worry.
Yesterday I woke up and had palpitations, I pressed my neck for about 15 seconds to see how quick my heart was going and since doing this, I have had some tingling in my right side of my face. I’m worried I’ve damaged a nerve, my dad said he doesn’t think this would be possible, but the tingling hasn’t gone.
Ive been managing my anxiety quite well, but this is scary and I’ve had the tingling for about 16 hours.
Could stress cause this ?
Re: pb's Health anxiety worries thread
I’ve been getting lots of ectopic beats and fluttering in my throat and chest for the last couple of days.
Last time this happened, I spoke to the dr and she said they are normal.
Has anyone had these, that seem to last most of the day.

Loads of times - and I’m still here! The more you focus on them, the more you’ll have. Try drinking water as dehydration can make them worse, at least for me. But they’re harmless. I know it’s hard but you need to put them out of your mind and not give them a thought! They will pass.

Thank you, I will try the water. I just had a long chat with a friend and they seem to have got a bit better x

Yep the more you can ignore them and not pay them any mind, the quicker they’ll go away!
Re: pb's Health anxiety worries thread
I’ve had tingling in my left foot at night for a few months now, plus tingling in my right shin on and off.
This morning I woke with pins and needles and stiffness in my right foot, that I’ve still got now.
Im really worried about MND.
I know people will either point out old posts. Ignore me or tell me I’m a serial poster !
I just need someone to help me think rationally.
My gp is calling on the 5th January, so I will ask about my symptoms.
My gp has agreed that I can have an alternative test instead of the stress test because of my anxiety, but I’m also worried about this.
My gp has gone on maternity leave, so I will have a new gp.
My dad has had he’s first covid vaccination and he’s second in January, I have always been scared of getting the virus and passing it on to them.
I want my life back, but am scared I’ve now got mnd, the numbness and tingling is real !!
Re: pb's Health anxiety worries thread
Does the tingling go in the day though?

The tingling in my left foot goes during the day, in my right foot and shin in tends to last all day, but usually goes eventually.
My rational brain, tells me that mnd would not come and go.
The stiffness, numbness and tingling in my right foot and shin has been all day today.
Re: pb's Health anxiety worries thread
Yeah I was going to say it wouldn't come and go.
Re: pb's Health anxiety worries thread
My shin feels numb and my foot feels strange and abit tingly and numb. I'm really scared...
