I've been sick with what seems to be the flu (headache, sore throat, fever, body aches, chest pains, etc) for at least a week now. Everyone I've hung out with seems to have caught it and seems to have the same sympoms. As someone who's had anxiety now for 3 ish year I'm starting to notice more anxiety whenever I'm sick. Does anyone else get the weird cold sensation in their chest that usually last for like 5 minutes, usually when they have a fever? I've had ECG and blood work done and it showed that my body was healthy and nothing was wrong with my organs as well. Thinking its just my anxiety but sill kind of worried.

      It is awful. I'm only 15 and my heart races to 120-130 sometimes and it makes me really worried, although I've been told by doctor my heart and organs are working perfectly normal and my heart is in good condition. Anxiety truely sucks, specially the physical symptoms that come along with it. 😷 Hope you feel better soon and can get relief from your anxiety.

      Yes, it mentally and physically drains me. Specially after panic attacks. My heart rate stays at like 90bpm all day and its so tiring. I'm gonna talk to my doctor about maybe a medicine to slow my heartrate. I wish you the best of luck for your anxiety. You can get through it smile

      Beta blockers coudl be an option for you (Dr/Cardiologist will determine their appropriateness). in the meantime, I would consider checking your magnesium levels as plapatations/anxeity is almost always eliviated by Magnesium (check your local health food shop for suppliments)
