Feeling anxious

Posted , 4 users are following.

Ive done so well on 10 of celexa. But today ive had a lot of anxiety again. Have a sinus infection and first round of antibiotics didnt work so now onto round two which i dont like. Drugs make me nervous. Kept waking up with huge body jerks last night and that scared me too cause i worry about seizures even though ive never had them. Also had a horrible headache, chest tightness and heart palps which doesnt help. Its really cold here today and tomorrow with projected -60 windchills so thats not helping. My sister called.and said she has to have a head mri after they found some abnormalities in an xray which is stressing me out since our dad died of a glioblastomia multiforme brain tumor. Hard day. Sorry to vent just bugs me when ive been doing great and then have a horrible day sucks.

      Thanks Michelle. I think the antibiotic has amped my heart palps as well. The dr put in a new prescription for me for antibiotic since this one doesn't seem to be working, but wasn't able to pick it up today--so will get tomorrow . I hope this crap passes soon!

    Hi

    Perhaps the extreme cold weather is making you have palps, chest tightness and headaches. It's more difficult to take in sufficient oxygen in cold weather due to restricting blood flow . This can cause anxiety in itself. Hope you feel better soon.
