    yes anxiety can cause many different sensations on the body. Everybody is different. Irritable bowel syndrome is also very common with anxiety. I have had that on and off for years but it finally stopped. The main thing is that it’s not so much the symptoms or sensations that you get, it’s finding out what is the root cause of the anxiety and dealing with that. Once you learn to manage that the symptoms should diminish or go away. They don’t always go away 100% but at least you can manage better. you really want to learn how to relax your mind and slow down, think positive, etc. speaking with a counselor can help you do this. Hope you feel better soon
