Hey guys,

I have had really bad health anxiety for the past 3 months, and in those months I have been experiencing a weird nose pressure, tightening sensation. Sometimes it feels like someone is pulling on my nose- yes I know super weird and I feel that sometimes on my cheek and forehead. I even feel like pressure behind my right eye. When this pressure comes, my throat gets tight, I have difficulty breathing and it feels like I'm walking on quicksand. These episodes happen every few days and last about an hour. So weird I know. I have had ct scans, MRIs, xrays, ultrasounds you name it. Even a brain MRI. My doctors find mild issues but say it has nothing to with these episodes and that it could be anxiety. They find me to be a mystery and cannot explain what is going on? Anyone else experience this?
