So I recently was diagnosed with anxiety after someone my age(25) died of a brain tumor. I started thinking it could happen to me and then it led to all different kinds of diseases(leukemia, MS, ALS , Cancer). My first symptom was my eye sight went really funny, I could see but it was different so I went to the eye doctor and I needed reading glasses but my eyes still do the funny thing sometimes. Then I had shortness of breath, diarrhea, nausea, racing heart. I had chest x-rays done and loads of blood work as well as a abdominal ultrasound......all was good. So off to the doctor I go because now I have a new symptom, tingling limbs, and cramping hands. He gives me paxil which I take for 3 days then stop because it was making me so dizzy. Now I am having severe muscle weakness in the morning and I am taking Effexor. I hate waking up because of the weak feeling, once I am up I am usually fine but it feels so awful and last night at work one of my co workers noticed my right pupil was dilated more then my left pupil which freaked the hell out of me. What did I do when I got home...... referred to Dr Google of course and here we are back at the brain tumor or some other neurological disorder. I just want to know if anyone has ever noticed their pupils being bigger than one another and if the morning weakness and shakiness is common with anxiety. This has only been going on for 2 months but it is a real downer :cry:
