Haha, maybe that is it. I just find it weird that they seem really bad in the palms of my hands of all places. Oh well, I asked a nurse practitioner about it today (had some blood work done) and she said as long as I'm not getting bad varicose veins or anything it's really not a sign of anything bad.

Well, my blood work came back and everything was good except my platelets, calcium, and albumin were slightly high (that can all be caused by dehydration and I'm betting that's it because all those levels were fine two months ago). They did tell me I tested positive for a past Epstein Barr infection, so that virus I had at the end of April could have been the beginning of mono.

I've still been getting some weird symptoms like feeling faint and occasional nausea. I'm actually starting to wonder if I'm being exposed to mold in my apartment so I'm staying at my dad's for a week or so to see if I feel better. The reason I suspect that is because I have a wall air conditioner in my bedroom and it seems very dirty, and my symptoms pretty much started when the weather got warm (and when I started running the A/C).

Have your adenoids and tobsils removed.....

The pain comes from the adenoids swelling up pushing pressure on the euthacian tubes, blocking the upper airway and letting off muchus that goes into your stomach. This process seens to occurr at night when aperson sleeps. By the time you get to the doc you have been up long enough for the flow to return to normal. Adenoids affects the quality of your life as you wake up almost every day nausea and sometimes vomit....get this pressure feeling behind your eyes that moves towards the ears.....sometimes causing a obe dided headache wich is actually ear ache spreading. Sometimes you just don't want to eat. You battle to gain wait and you always feel sick and this affects the relationships around you. Ask your doctor to refer you yo ent snd hzve him check your adenoids....and if you still have tonsils....tame rm out same time

I wake up this way everyday as well, I will feel all of the slime &&gunky glue like mucus in my chest! && will immediately want to throw up... The way I fixed this was hard but very doable, I trained myself to eat as soon as I woke up everyday to push it all down into my stomach! Then down a glass of lemonade/juice.. I don't know if you drink a lot of liquids everyday, like I totally don't drink water a million times a day like they recommend, so this will make it thicker... Also I breathe steam out of a mug before bed&& I sleep with a cherry pit heat pack. It's more to reduce my anxiety from feeling congested in my chest, but it's suppose to help "melt away" the goop!

I have severe allergies as well...mostly in the spring and summer. I breathe a sigh of relief when winter rolls around because my allergies become very mild, and most times go away.

I'm a bit of a hypochondriac myself. I was diagnosed with mild asthma a few years ago. I don't always have symptoms but I get lightheaded and winded sometimes. Like you, I always think something might be wrong with me....

I've also convinced myself many times before I might have cancer, a brain tumor, lung cancer. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one!

I also suffer from slight anxiety, mostly stemming from thinking i have something wrong with me. I have suffered panic attacks before with symptoms of a heart attack ( clammy hands, feels like you cant breathe, heart racing, feeling faint)

I don't have health insurance right now so I don't go to the doctor often but I probably need to. I need to get my allergies/asthma checked again. I feel like if I had an inhaler it would help with my breathing. I have never had an attack but I'm afraid I might one day.

I joined this topic because I want people to talk to about this kind of stuff.
