I read the symptoms of Long QT syndrome and it has some similar stuffs to what I experienced. (before). The first time I was on antipsychotic (risperidone), my heart started to beat too fast, even when I was just sitting on a chair. Nurses and caregivers told me it's anxiety attack. But why...

I was walking out of a convenience store at a populated rest stop and walked underneath a large tree. A very tiny drop of something hit my lower lip, could this have been saliva from a bat? I didn’t see any bats. For context it was a sunny day at 2pm in Florida and this was a populated rest...

Getting three impacted wisdom teeth taken out on Friday. I'm worried about several things. I don't like being put to sleep. I'm afraid I won't wake up. I also I've alone so there will be no one to watch me to make sure I'm okay as the anesthesia wears off. Also, I'm afraid of getting a dry...

So I've had this problem going on three years now. My left foot's index toe (toe right next to the big one), has a partially numb spot on the right side of it, I'd say it makes up about 5-10% of the surface area. I get a feeling of reduced sensation whenever this spot touches something, or if I...

Hey, everyone. I’m 24 years old and I know in some places, water can be very dangerous if not handled correctly. So I’m in Fort Walton Beach, Florida for a short vacation. I’ve already been here since Sunday, and I’ll be leaving this coming Sunday. I’m in a small condo with my mom, my dad’s mom...

I've been having health problems that involve pain every month, most recently to the point of tears, if not some level of pain every day. I'm trying to see doctors about it and am looking forward to much anxiety caused by having to see different people in different places for different tests...

Needless to say I'm quite aware I'm a hypochondriac, and I have been dealing with GAD and Social Phobia ever since I was 5-6 years old (in the gym, the scenery almost seemed like it was rocking back and forth, like I was on a ship). Partial backstory over, I'm no stranger to anxiety, but for...

So today I decided to go to urgent care because of the stomach pains and stuff I’m been having and turns out I have a UTI, which I got a kidney infection 2 years ago which started my whole severe health anxiety stuff, so this is making me extremely worried and making me freak out. The medication...

So, I’ve been super nauseous the last few days but being nauseous is a regular for me because of my anxiety, so I can’t tell the difference and I’m scared to look up stuff and get my anxiety going even more. But i think I could possibly have the flu or getting the flu. I’ve been super nauseous...

Does anyone else get that feeling where they feel like they can’t breath and it gets so bad that you think you might die but not quite bad enough and then it lessens and starts over again and again. Also feels like this weird feeling in my chest and sometimes it’s like a shiver and tightness but...

I can't get a break. First I've got body (back) health problems, then up comes period problems, and then comes teeth problems, and now I might have eye problems as well. Each problem comes with the stress of calling/making appointments, driving to new places for tests, and the growing paranoia...

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced random heart palpitations while experiencing anxiety. I woke up this morning and felt really anxious up until now. I feel like this sense of calmness with some anxiety and then my heart palpitated and I felt some what anxious but not as bad as I...

I am ready to break down, cry, scream, kick my arms and legs in the air like a crazed toddler...if my cursed back pain would let me. That being said, read on only if you have a high tolerance for long rants and venting. At the moment I am completely unable to sleep at night because of my lower...

I feel really dizzy, and it’s been getting worse throughout the day but I have a lot of back problems and had surgery last July on my spine so I think it’s from my back. But my anxiety keeps acting up making me think it’s my heart and I’m gonna die. I can’t take it anymore; I feel terrible and...

Hey all, this is my first post to the forum. I’ve been wanting to discuss this issue I’m having and see if anyone can relate or has any words of wisdom. So for the past 9 months or so I’ve been having a problem with swollen lymph nodes, among other problems. I’ve been diagnosed with health...

Hi, first time poster long time lurker. I’ve been suffering with severe anxiety for about a year now (more milder for a few years previous to this) Anyway, a few months ago I started feeling strange sensations down one side of my body (left). It’s almost like a feeling of irritability all down...
