It's very difficult to describe, and very distressing - I have been trying hard to remain calm about this. The worrying bit is that it all seems to go away if I lie down, so it must be something physical as symptoms wouldn't change like that with anxiety?
I'm just feeling pretty messed up about this. Apart from the anxiety, this could be caused by a whole host of things - thyroid, spine, muscular, brain, heart, nerves, deficiencies. Where will the doctor begin testing I have no idea. I'm seeing the same doc that referred me for cardio, so I have no doubt he will arrange further testing for this.
