    Yes.....it's definitely anxiety.....try to see a doctor ....you might need some meds just to take you down a bit....it is truly horrendous....I have messaged you with the title of a book which is helping me.....most of us on this forum have experienced or still are experiencing similar symptoms....my heart goes out to you...regards

      Thank you so much for the reply, tuesday I have another appointment and i'll see what the doctor will say. I really think anxiety can mask any sickness if you let it. Sometimes we go deeper and deep into it and it really helps to see that others are just like you. Maybe together we can beat it.

      Of course we can....good to see the doctor...make sure nothing else going on....see what they suggest to help you. Best wishes....

      Just a thought...I also meditate now...helps me breathe through it...I also do Mindfulness as recommended by a counsellor...trying to take control of life again....

    well i shoukd give you a little more details i guess. i had an ekg six months ago and other test, don t remember the name exactly and they were ok. those were made when i had a really bad panic attack. i went to the emergency room, really scared with palpitations etc. the doctor said it was a panic attack, anxiety and said that i ahould try to relax more and gave me some pills. they helped me with my palpitations. i think they were high on potasium or something.

    3 of 4 tyroid results were fine, just one was kinda off that s why tuesday i m going back to my doctor. yesterday i went to my family doctor and i told her about my headaches, sensitivity to light, feeling like throwing up, always feeling the need to spit, she examined me and said that i have sinusitis. maybe that s the reason that my head hurts? she gave me some pills and nazal spray. anyway last year was more ok, i was in control of my anxiety, but now i get all sweaty when i leave the house, when i ride the subway, whenever i go to places like malls, grocerie shops etc etc. i feel the need to flee and get to safety but the thing is that sometimes i feel this way at home 2.

    next week i m going to see a therapist and talk about my anxiety. any advice??? any comments toward what i wrote? i would love to know what you guys think.
