    Hey David, I spent a week in hospital now, same symptoms, but for years now, all got to much and had an 'attack', felt like a seizure! But think it was anxiety. They found brain lesions, unspecified, Sjogrens syndrome and Lupus Coagulate . Waiting for more results, but if you feel something is wrong keep checking. I have been dissmissed for 8 years now with stress and fibromyalgia, but I know myself, and I am glad I kept checking and klonked out so that they can do a proper check. I do understand though that all these can be related to anxiety, but at least knowing that nothing or what else is wrong then I feel tackle the anxiety. I do not want to be a vegetable in a year all because I left it to anxiety and left something else untreated. 

    Good luck, sucks feeling like this and like everyone thinks you (me) are going mad.
