Hey everybody, I felt better yesterday. Didn’t really have any symptoms but today is really bad. My nose feels warm and I have a feeling like it’s bleeding but IM NOT BLEEDING! I have pains on top of my eyebrow, head and temples on my left side. I’m scared I am slowly having a stroke. My pains feel weird, it doesn’t hurt to where I can’t talk and walk but I feel it all the time today. I feel lightheaded and I feel like I’m going to pass out. ALL doctors I’ve been to, refuse to give me an MRI or any tests for my brain because they say I’m fine and it’s ALL anxiety. I hate myself more and more because I can’t get over this and it’s been 2 months... I don’t want this to be my normal anymore. Can somebody help me? Or at least give me advice? I am getting hopeless and I think I may start medication even though I didn’t want it. Seems like my only option at this point. I feel like my head is bleeding or something like a nerve or vein bursted. I feel like I’m dying... 🤕 Help..

    I've been having that nose feeling lately too! Apparently it can be an anxiety symptom. confused

    Really weird, but mine keeps running for no real reason.

    There are very good reasons why GP s refuse various tests and you possibly need to accept those reasons. When we get caught on a treadmill of tests the tests can soon get quite invasive and can cause problems.

    We are on holiday and where we are the meadows and trees etc are full of blossom. Some crops are also producing a great deal of pollen. Could some Antihystimines help you ?. Pop in to chemist, just grasping at straws ??

    If your GP suggests medications you need to take His advice

    I have been having these same kinds of sensations as well as like 20 other things for over a year. I vascillate between believing it is something physical like chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia and just thinking its all anxiety. Every day is different and sometimes I almost feel normal. But it doesnt last... pretty soon im back to tingling and muscle twitching and head pressure etc.. and then I just feel frustrated beyond belief. It seems impossible to know if or how it could be anxiety or if there is something more to it. I have noticed though, when my mind is highly engaged in something deeply engrossing, my symptoms are better. Not gone, but better. I am convinced I can overcome it somehow like I have the other anxiety manifestations I’ve had. You need to try to keep a positive outlook as well. The worst thing you can do is beat yourself up about it. You are no more in control of it than anything kind of disease or disorder. Your job is to find things that are helpful, experiment with reasonable things that might work and build on your knowledge of what might be bothering you. One day at a time my friend! The body and mind are mysteries.. we are all just learning as we go..
