My son had appendicitis over the weekend and had to have his appendix removed too. He was only in the hospital one evening.:) Praying for a quick recovery for you. Hopefully you are not to sore!...
Hello! Yes, I was tested and found out that my magnesium and calcium ion levels were very low after my anxiety skyrocketed this past fall. It is very difficult to get 100% of your daily intake of...
Hi! I've been dealing with Costo for about 4 months now. It's starting to go away (fingers crossed) but yes, I had pain in both arms and back constantly. There is no rhyme or reason to it. Some days...
So, since my anxiety got really bad the past couple of months - right as I'm falling asleep I suddenly jerk awake and feel like I'm gasping for air. My heart will start beating quickly too. It's...
Yes. Costochondritis. I was diagnosed in Sept. It hurts a lot! And, the pain moves around the chest. Unfortunately, it takes a while to heal. The key is to try and relax.. Use a heating pad or water...
Costochondritis? It's an inflammation of the chest wall and has brought me into the ER four times the past few months. It's made my anxiety terrible! My panic attacks have finally subsided but still...
Thanks, Larry.:) Lacey, I know.... That's the thing. Anxiety just moves onto something else.:(...
I felt this way only a few months ago. I started getting weird head pains and was convinced it was a brain tumor. My dr. reassured me I'd have many neurological symptoms if that were the case. When...
What a huge blessing!!!! Congrats!!!...
I'm the same way when I get a migraine. I always think that it's something worse or even deadly when I get them which then makes my anxiety bad. I just try to rest, relax, and tell myself that it's...
My 14 y/o niece went through a very similar situation with her anxiety. It was awful. She had a hard time staying in school (would often walk out of class due to panic attacks) and would have...
Thanks, Hibee. I'm not sure either. I guess my body just doesn't want to shut down for the night. I've seen many dr.'s including having a brain MRI done. Everything has come back normal except my...
Ugh. My anxiety is so much worse at night. Which causes me to not get a good night of sleep and in turn makes my anxiety worse.:( Lately, I've been getting head pains in the back and sides of my...
Larry, thank you.:) Kitt, yes, you are right. I def have anxiety but have felt very "off" lately. Like anxiety on steroids. I will continue to work on anxiety but I'm sure getting my body balanced...
I was going through the same thing. I would wake out of a dead sleep with my heart pounding. Although, I just found out that I am deficient in magnesium and calcium. Both which can cause a raving...
Happy New Year! So, my anxiety has been terrible the last 4 months. It all started with my diagnoses of costochondritis. In the beginning I was getting terrible panic attacks and my body basically...
Mine fluctuates all the time. I had terrible anxiety as a kid and then it went away pretty much through all my twenties. I'm 35 now and it's reared it's ugly head once again. It's the worse now that...
It's awful! Everything thing that physically happens to me turns into such a HUGE deal in my head. Anxiety is the worst.:(...
Does anyone else get tension headaches from their anxiety? When my anxiety gets bad I get a burning sensation in the back of my head and then my head feels like it's being squeezed. I'm usually left...
Thanks everyone. It's nice to know I'm not the only one. I'm trying hard not to be overly sensitive and obsessed about my heart. Yesterday was much better and today I'm struggling a little bit but...
So, now my new obsession is constantly counting my beats per minute. It's driving me crazy. I feel like my heart always feels like it's not beating normally. And, I'm always taking deep breathes....
Thanks guys! I did mention it to my dr. on Monday and he pretty much blew it off to me and my anxiety. I do have health anxiety so it's always hard to decide on which symptoms are anxiety and which...
Costochondritis is diagnosed after everything else is ruled out. Typically you can recreate the pain by pressing on your chest....
Hi! So, I've been dealing with terrible anxiety the past few months and still trying to heal from costochondritis. I'm constantly thinking that I have a terrible illness. Right now, I'm very worried...
Hi there! Did they rule out costochondritis? I ask because I am dealing with it right now. It's inflammation of the chest wall. My chest hurts all the time and it often feels like it hurts to...
I get head pressure all the time and when it first started happening it freaked me out. I had a brain MRI done and had my eyes checked out because a lot of the pressure is over one of my eyes. Still...
Wow! I could have wrote this same post. I ended up in the ER last night as well with chest pains. 4th trip in 3 months.:( I have costochondritis right now too and it really messes with my anxiety. As...
At what stage in the disease would heart problems occur? It's what I am the most worried about if I did get infected this past Summer.:( Are heart attacks common with LD? When I was diagnosed with...
Thank you so much! Do you know how I would find a LLMD? I'm guessing this is probably something my insurance wouldn't cover...?...
Hi! I have a question for those of you who have already been diagnosed with LD. First here is my story - 3 months ago, I started having chest pains and 3 trips to the ER later I was diagnosed with...
So, I'm starting to feel better. Each day seems to be getting a little better. However, I'm still getting a lot of pressure in the right side of my face and occasional shooting pains in my head. So,...
I've had PVS's since I was 16 (I'm 35 now) and my heart is perfectly fine. They are uncomfortable and I tend to have more when my anxiety is bothering me but they are harmless. I had a ton when I was...
Ugh! Me too! I'm guilty of this. I think it will make me feel better but always makes me feel worse.:(...
Thank you! It does help to feel like I'm not alone. That list really helps, too. I can't believe how many symptoms there are! It's crazy what the mind can do. :confused:...
Does anyone else experience this? I feel like my head is always feeling weird now. Lots of pressure, occasional shooting pains, and my face and scalp feels numb, hot or tingles sometimes. It freaks...
Readytorun, Thank you! I'm just taking it day by day right now. Thank you for your response and advice. Much appreciated!:)...
Sorry for the spelling errors! Texting on my phone. :/...
Hello! I'm new to this site and looking for some support. I've had anxiety my whole life and always dealt with it pretty well up until 2 months ago I started having panic attacks. It started with me...
