Strange sensations

[Chrissy]

So last night I had an "episode" where I was shaking and trembling with chills and heat. It's like someone had dipped my whole body in icy hot, my body was freezing and on fire all at once. But the part that really got me was that my body felt semi numb. Like, my skin was still sensitive to every touch, but my bones and muscles felt non existent. Now I'm sitting on my couch and I feel like ice water is running through my legs... Not sure what to ask my doctor or how even to look up these symptoms... I'm lost.

honestly this just seems like symptoms of anxiety which i know is hard to hear. I get feelings of numbness a lot in my legs and fingers and it definitely feels cold also but I truly don't think its harmful. Please try not to worry and know that many people are suffering with the same symptoms. anxiety can play crazy tricks on the mind.

Don't bother to look it up on google. The best and easiest thing to do is to telephone a doctors practice and speak to them on the phone like you said on here. Just tell them your symptoms and they will know if it is vital that you go into see them or not.

It's a common symptom of anxiety.
For the last month or so my face and scalp have been burning and slight itchy.
