    Hi Kirstie, You are not alone... I don't get dizzy but I have been feeling so unwell, -an overwhelming sense of weakness/numbness and like I'm going to pass out! It's been frightening x

    I have been googling my symptoms which is making me feel worse! ;-(

    For 2/3 days I lost all feeling to my left arm was really frightened thought I had a T.I.A and was sent to the Emergency Medical Unit in Cov ... but they said it was a panic attack! X

      My panic attack lasted ab that as well! I was really worried because if you Google Panic attacks it states that they only last 20 mins but can last up to an hour! And mine seemed to continue for days ... I was traumatised/out of control and so frightened I was having a heart attack or something ... Going to the docs on Mon to change my medicine, I'm currently taking Sertraline (which are great for my depression but they are not helping with my anxiety)

      Are you on prescribed AD's? X

      Lots of love to you too 💖

      I have been experiencing Chest Tightness too ! It feels a bit better now but now it just feels like a big knot on my chest and it won't go away! My doc gave me some Diazepam last week but I'm only allowed to take then short term as they have repercussions...

      they make me feel calmer but I'm still feeling weak and chest still feels tight!

      Also I experience shortness of breath when I'm doing just the basic of tasks... i.e Washing up and just doing what I have to.. Hoovering sends me into a cardiac arrest! Lol

      Same as carry food shopping home (I don't drive) Life feels really difficult at the moment.. It feels like I'm just trying to survive! XxxXxx
