Q: Anxiety or stroke ?

Lately I have been having panic and anxiety attacks. I went to the doc and got some meds. I haven't started the pills yet. Last nite it felt like I was dying. I couldnt sleep and when I did close my eyes for a few minutes it felt like my right side was numb, when I got up it lasted for 2 minutes. then went away. Is it just more anxiety or a stroke in process. Im clueless. Is strokes run in the fam. My dad side of the fam has had them. But he had high bp and I dont.

Honey, not to worry....It is probably a panic attack...I lived with them for years...I was actually ready to die...You see, like you, I expected this...My Father died at 59 years old and my sister told me I would die young like he did...For some reason she thought she could see beyond the beyond...I don't talk to her anymore...The last I heard she had cured her own "torn Achilles Heel"... Rolling Eyes

Don't worry...Enjoy life...Make every minute count, but only because you want to make every minute count...Not because you are afraid, but that you want to enjoy every minute of this wonderful place on earth...When the attacks start, think of a peaceful ocean...Think of floating like a bird...Think only good things....

I forgot about my attacks about 9 years ago...Wasted all that time and three hospital visits when I thought I was preparing to die...Now I live....

I send you all my love...I am here if ever you need help... rainbow

Hugs,
Caroline
