Ummm I am in the same boat mitch....It
started with chest pains, those went away
(after an ekg and chest x-ray came back
normal).....And my panic went away. Then
I got a headache for two weeks, had an mri
that came back somewhat abnormal (chiar 1
malformation is the prognosis). Now I am
scared shitless that all of these symptoms
that I am having are because of this
malformation. Even though it's usually
benign...I have to go see a neurologist on
wednesday who is going to do some more
examining.....But I feel like such a
hypochondriac....I think my family thinks
that I am going crazy. I know that my
boyfriend certainly does (can't say that I
blame him either, because I often think
that I am). But just wanted to let you
know that your not alone. Right now I
feel like everything is scaring
me.....Every little sensation in my body
makes my breath stop and the fear
rise....I am pretty much at my wits end
with this anxiety/panic disorder crap.

Anxiety Side Effects Posted: 01-02-06 12:45pm
I too myself have similar problems. It
is hard to believe that anxiety can cause
you to have so many side effects. Some
of them are just frightening. I had the
whole chest pains, shortness of breath,
tingling, dizzyness, headaches, nausea,
etc... I am so restless and scared to be
alone or go anywhere alone in case
something happens to me.
I am on three different medications, one
for my heart because I was experiencing
tachycardia, and celexa, and ativan for my
anxiety/panic attacks. The drugs cause
so many side effects too that I find
myself going crazy wondering if I am sick.
Lately I have been afraid that I am
going to have to live the rest of my life
in fear and feeling like crap.
I really hate that I have to be this way.
I cannot enjoy life. Hopefully I will
get help soon when I see my
psychiatrist.
I will keep you in my prayers, we all
certainly need all the help we can get.

I Don't Believe It's Anxiety Or Panic Either... Posted: 01-02-06 20:33pm
I just copied from a post I put on in
another section of this site.....
I have been having the same symptoms, but
thought it was lightheadness first and was
going to pass out. Then had numbness in
elbows to hands. Then I feel like its a
heart attack because I get so nervous.
Have been to er and nothing. They thought
it was ear infection. I have anxiety now,
just because of these feelings. Please
help. Kim
i am on an event monitor now. The monitor
will record when I push it, and I am
suppose to push it when I have an
"episode." my feelings were really light
headed at first and just really hard to
describe, thought I was then having a
heart attack because I think I had a panic
or anxiety attack. Then the last one
before chrsitmas was pain on the side of
my head and numbness in elbows to hands.
Then another panic attack - I think,
thought I was having a heart attack or
stroke after that. The doctor thought
they were stressed related anxiety or
panic, which could cause migranes which
migranes could cause stroke like symptoms.
Now, I fell like my chest is heavy. I
feel like I have anxiety because I am so
worried about these coming, now I worry
when i'm out or that I can't go out an
enjoy myself. I will be having an mri and
mra on wed., and i'm terrified, but I will
feel better knowing they can figure
something out I hope. If anyone else
feels any of these please reply. It's
helpful to read these, thanks. Kim

faint!!
