Hey,
in september I had a mild anxiety attack that last for about 2 hours and felt anxiety for the rest of the day, I got over that in a couple of days and all was fine. For the next few months I felt fine but sometimes when I go out to eat or sit in a car I would get hot flashes and flustered but other than that all good till december came around.
Early december I had a really bad anxiety attack, shaking, felt like a electrical shock went threw my body, felt light head, dizzy, heart racing and all that. Went to the hospital I had a blood test done and a ct scan and all came back normal. However after that attack I havenât felt right since. In the beginning I had sporadic pains in my head just fire off everywhere, most were mild but occasionally a few sharp ones. Also had head pains in the back of my head mostly in the base and where my neck and head joined.
I went to my doctor told him what was up and said its anxiety, he asked me if I was depressed and I said no because I really wasnât. He told me that the head aches in the back of my head were just tension. He then decided to put me of zoloft, well I didnât really react well to it so I stopped taking after about two weeks. I then went on vacation and actually started to feel better and when I came back I told him that I was feeling better and the head aches were going away. Well a week went by and I started to feel like I was getting the flew and my anxiety came back but I had no attacks just a constant anxiety feeling, shaking mostly. By this time the headaches change to a dull pain that lasted for like ten minutes or so at a time. My head felt really heavy and my eyes could not focus on anything. My memory went down hill to and I was scared all the time that I had a brain tumor. I mean besides the weird head feeling sometimes I felt like I was going pass out, legs, arms and hands felt heavy or the muscles were just tense.
My doctor then sent me to another md who was also a psychologist, and he had get another blood test and a urine test, he to have checked for like 30 things. Everything came back fine and then prescribed my some ativan 1mg 1 a day for 3 months but I have only been taking for a month.
Now lately my ears hurt and ring, head still feels heavy, I got a pressure behind my eyes and sometimes I get slight dull headaches and sometimes I will get mild to sharp pains anywhere in my head, probably 1 to 3 times a day. I woke up this morning feeling very disoriented my eyes were just moving everywhere and had a weird feeling on top of my head. I felt better as the day went by but sometimes my legs feel week.
Something weird thought lately, when its nice outside , like sunny and warm I feel a lot better oh and the ativan did help a lot. Just wondering do any of you know what I am talking about or have been threw this? Is this really anxiety?
All the docs agree and so does my therapist that its anxiety, I just wish it would go away.
