    Hi 😊 weakness... shakey body inside... choking sensation...emotional/loosing control... fear of illness/dying... burning sensation...

    Yep! I got all these! The tight throat/choking is actually called Globus, it exists, it has a name... it's harmless! But scary. Once I had seen the neurologist and he explained it to me, the Globus got better within a few days. It's another horrid symptom of health anxiety. Giving it a name and knowing what it is really helps.

    "I now have health anxiety, and as part of that, I get Globus" There. Said it! It does help. I feel ready to start recovering now. I'm looking into CBT, and hoping that'll help. Well done for getting out of the house. Keep it up! I only started with Health Anx about Aug/Sept 2016 too. Out of nowhere. (Though looking back... actually, it's always been there, but less noticeable!).

    Hope this helps. God blesss you x
