Please help: Palpitations, panic attacks

Posted by Anonymous @anon89880224, Dec 16, 2011

Many issues that are really scaring me.
Anxiety & panic attacks start suddenly for no real reason - symptoms :
Fast heart rate, shaking, short breath, dizzy, chest pain, stomach pains.

Also, close to my period (week or so prior) my anxiety is at it's worst.
Same symptoms as above but also fatigue, weakness, tingling ,nausea, that comes and goes - even when no panic or anxiety is present.
It just hits me for no reason at all.

Had tests done. Blood work , ECG , holters... All seems ok.

I just hate feeling this way. It disrupts my life a lot.

Can anyone relate?

Thanks.

I've been dealing with something for the past 2 years. No one can tell me what it is. I've suffered with digestive issues and have been through many test. I've had a colonoscopy, endoscopy, barrium swallow test, 2 ultrasounds on my stomach area, gastric emptying study, 2 stress test, numerous heart tests, holter monitor etc. The doctors seem to think I'm suffering from anxiety and stress. It seems as though I have symptoms that are worse in the mornings thru about midday and I start feeling better as the day goes on. I feel dizzy for short peroids, nervous stomach, palpatations at times, just an overall worried feeling about nothing in particular. Feels like I experience almost like a out of body sensation. I know this sounds strange and sometimes I feel as though people think I'm crazy when I try and explain what I'm feeling. I'm lost on what's going on in my body ! I wish I could get some answers.

You have just outlined exactly what I have been feeling over the last seven months. It's horrible and I don't know what to do. I fear taking medication so I won't see a psychiatrist. You are not alone.
