So basically I was diagnosed with panic disorder, anxiety and depression back in 2015. Long story short, it got better and I eventually stopped taking my meds back in 2018. About (not sure) a year ago, I started having palpitations, felt like I couldn’t breathe, numbing of the limbs or fingers, and chest pains. I went to the dr to check my heart cuz I thought at this point I was having a heart attack or early symptoms of one. Went to the ER, nothing. Went to the dr multiple times (for 6 mths) and was told my heart was ok, had multiple EKGs, had blood work done, even had a heart monitor and nothing. The only conclusion I received was anxiety. Now I am overweight and tried to lose weight which I did lose about 10lbs but I feel so hopeless. Last night my heart palpitations woke me up, I had a surge of nervousness and numbing surge through my upper chest and right arm. I couldn’t breathe. It was terrible. I don’t really have anyone to call to help calm me down but I did end up calling my mom to see if she could just talk to me. It helped. That and an ice pack on my chest. I was able to get some sleep but when I woke up my chest was sore and still is. Does anyone else suffer like this? I mean I know I’m an over thinker and I have gotten a dr to tell me it’s just anxiety but I’m just at my wits end. Idk if I should go to a different doctor? But then again I had the ER dr tell me he didn’t see anything or see anything wrong with me. I have been told by my dr I am heathy except for me being overweight but again, I’ve been watching what I eat and don’t eat late. My life has completely changed.
*something to note: I work full time and have some work drama and I am a student as well and have had some minor anxiety due to homework. But nothing that it would make me panic to this extent.
