Hi all,

Does anyone else get a numbness sensation in the face and eye on one side when your feeling anxious sometime my arm and leg also feel weak but that's when I start worrying about my face also an ache or chest pains in middle of chest and back throughout the day?.. I have had ECG 's and a full blood count which all came bk fine but I'm still concerned that these symptoms might be something else and not have been picked up in my tests?

    Do you have a history of anxiety, ?anxiety can cause many different sensations in the body, which are harmless. I know how scary they can seem. Many people do get a numb sensation, tingling, weakness, and many others. I’ve had all of those and they were due to stress and anxiety.

    they started diminishing when I really practiced calming down my mind and body. I listen to calming meditations for anxiety relief. Found on YouTube. Sounds like your testing was all normal so that’s great. Also, if you need to talk to someone, find a counselor who specializes in anxiety. It can really help to vent to somebody else. You can even do it virtually. I hope you start to feel better soon.

      Hi yes ive had anxiety and panic attacks for 15 years now and as ive got older i have had all different symptoms..i have started listening to meditation videos and got a few apps on my phone like calm etc and they are good for at night when I'm going to bed but it's when I'm at work I get the numbness in face and arm and that triggers off the anxiety as I'm scared I'm having a stroke or something bad is happening..it passes after a while but it is scary I'm definatly looking in to councilling again as I felt the last one didn't help me but its just finding one as u have to wait for one to be available which could take months.
