    Hi, saty:  Anxiety/depression can cause just about any symptom you can think of.  It sounds like you have a chemical imbalance in the brain, but there is help for that.  Just go to your doctor and explain to him/her how you feel, and they can try you on different meds that will give you more seratonin and boost your moods...Please remember that it takes up to two weeks to get into your system, so don't give up until you have given it enough time to work...God bless...

      Thank you Carole for your comment.

      When I think about rash then the rash appear, when I think about HIV then all symptoms relate to HIV occur. Can stress cause symptoms mimic an acute HIV symptoms !

    it can indeed cause all these things, as carole says, it can cause just about everything you can imagine.  more to blame probably is the adrenalin that courses through your body when anxious - we dont even realise it, but on its own adrenaline really does affect the body in all these ways

      they will last as long as the root cause for the anxiety or stress lasts im afraid. sometimes meds help, but if there is a root cause typically only therapy will help resolve it

    Hi, hopefully you are better but this sounds like candida overgrowth which can cause all those symptoms, including mood changes! So get tested because it sounds a lot like a candida overgrowth
