Q: Does Anybody Know These Symptoms

Hello to all.
I have much many symptoms that allways doctor told me is anxiety and panic but I never believe and think must be something very bad I have as brain tumor,heart sick or something like that.
I have like a pressure inside my head,like dizzy all the time,when I try to rest
i am feeling like dizzyness inside me,also feel like something moving inside me,head,chest,arms,also sometimes I awake with pumping heart and also I feel pumping inside my head and arms and legs,sometimes feel like a lightning in my head,sometimes like my thoughts are very painful,i feel like I am gonna fell to the floor,feel like my head is coming and going,strange tastes in mouth like dry or paste,sweating rushes,i see sometimes that I am holding my breath,also feel like my lips or area around mouth like numbness,i feel like a restlessness inside my head,i feel like I cannot stay,it is very difficult to explain with words my feelings I do not know how to explain but strange feeling on all my body.Not allways I have all these but many times during last 10 years.
For example today I was in my job and suddenly I felt like a flash of sweating and feeling like if I were to die of a heart attack or cerebral attack,my legs,arms,hands coming like numbness,i was feeling like if I were to falling to the floor,very strange my head,like I do not know how to explain,like a chill all over my body,i felt like tics inside head,like if I were to become unconsciouss,i really thought I was gonna die,..Allways I feel like a motor inside me,like lightning inside my head,like if my head were gonna explode....
Living like this is so much desperating,it affects to my life so much all these.
I was taking seroxat for 6 years,and was working well,i left seroxat 1 year and then I back again on seroxat but seems not working seroxat now.
My doctor made me blood tests and electrocardiograms allways so many but allways good and says is only anxiety and panick attacks but I not believe how can anxiety make feeling like this so horrible;i see all the people around me,they feel well,they can stay,they can enjoy life and not feel this terrible symptoms,...Why happens this?What is it?
Sometimes I had months of feeling well but after sometime coming again the same...
Thanks to all
alex

Hey alex:
it does sound like you need an evauluation of your brain, if at all possible an mri. Just to make sure everything looks normal from that view. Sometimes medications stop working after taking it for a while. Talk to your psychiatrist about another medicine that would be right for you.

It sounds like your doctors right that you do have anxiety and panic disorder, and I would know because my fiance has many of the same symptoms as you!!! Heres a list of what he has: anxiety, panic disorder, hypochondriac, hypothyroid, ocd, depression, and I think a few more but I cant remember all of them!!! But yes hes always worrying about getting heart problems, tumors, anneryums, and blood clots and many many more problems all the time!!! And even he said when he makes himself believe that he has these health problems, he makes himself feel the symptoms of having them too, its like when you believe it so much that you can actually make yourself feel symptoms!!! I mean im not no doctor im just making suggestions!!! Heres a few things you can go to see if it helps you: cognitive behavioral therapy, see a counselor or therapist, go to a group meeting for people that have similar problems, go see a hypnotherapist!!! Well I hope that it works out for you wish ya the best!!! And hope I helped!!!
