i wanted to list the usual things i go though (am am going through as i write this) and see if anyone goes through similar things.
weird sensations in limbs -
sometimes its a feeling of numbness, or a feeling that my limbs arnt there, bu can always feel them when i go to touch. another sensation in my limbs only resides in my left side, and is hard to explain, but feels kind of like the way it tastes to lick a penny. and almost subtle metallic feeling runs up and down my left leg and arm. also get weak and wobbly limbs. sometimes feel like they wont work, but always do and can always walk, ect.
dizzy and falling feeling-
i get these dizzy attacks, not sure how to describe, its not the same kind of dizzy as spinning around, and almost hits me at random. very fast coming on. usually when im falling asleep i get this feeling in my head which is similar to falling, like that feeling you get when you jerk yourself away from a dream of falling, but this isnt during a dream, and can happen again and again
attacks of adrenaline? -
it comes from the mid to bottom section of my chest, it feels like im being literally injected with a syringe full of adrenaline into my chest. even after the "rush" it takes a while to feel semi normal again. these "injections" of what feels like adrenaline really exhaust me, and leave a weird lingering feeling in chest after the attacks subside. these usually happen before bed or when am laying or using computer
thoughts of serious underlying conditions -
i am CONVINCED something else is causing these symptoms. i have been to the doctors very recently, and have had a lot of bloodwork and check ups done, and the drs say im in great health, but i really feel i have a brain tumor, or something doing this. it usually switches off. one day ill think brain tumor, and ill have of of head pains, dizziness, etc....and some days ill have pains in stomach, and testicles, thinking that i have testicular cancer which has spread to my stomach. it also switches off from physical to medical. some days ill feel fine physically, and mentally think somethings wrong.
these are the main ones. if i think of some more i will add them soon. nothing really helps to make them better or worse. usually staying active, long walks help, but i usually end up trying to walk in very straight lines, to see if im okay, and havent had a stroke or something like that. its terrible.
thanks for reading.
