Soo many symptoms, how do i stop them? PLEASE READ!

[ellen1]

I woke up this morning feeling numb and my skin feels funny, last night I was laying in bed dizzy as hell and my breathing was so shallow I thought I was gunna die.
Ive had so many more symptoms but i cant list them all because theres too many, but they all seem to be brain Tumour symptoms. I keep getting headaches in the same place on my head and I actually think that I have a brain tumour or something. I worry that that is causing all my symptoms and not anxiety, but I'm scared to ever go to the doctor because they don't take me seriously. (I've been 5 times this year) what do I do?:( should I just get on and except my symptoms or what? I need to stop them:( I don't even have my mental anxiety any more, I just get the symptoms

I've been dealing with similar symptoms too and I constantly worry about a brain tumor and cancer.

I also have bad visual

*disturbances that make me panic all the time.

Sometimes I feel faint and feel like I can't walk

Insist on a full brain scan... that will put an end to your unknowns.

Faint and can't walk familiar with me although I bike everywhere and can balance in yoga classes. Try to take the feelings to court as they say but I'm not imagining this fainting anxiety!

I constantly think I have a brain tumor but don't worry yourself, it's one of the most common feelings for someone suffering with anxiety! Stay strong!

You'll be alright. Like everyone else has said, it's common to scare yourself into thinking a chihuahua is a T-Rex when suffering from anxiety no matter how minor your anxiety might be.
For instance, I haven't felt a bit of anxiety in over 3 months, but yesterday at work I got a rash on my finger from an allergic reaction (I work with processing donated goods, wasn't wearing my gloves), that was rather odd because it had little red dots on it. I freaked out thinking I had touched some flesh eating mold, washed my hands for like 5 minutes. douzed it with sanitizer. Then when I got home, poured rubbing alchohol on it and tea tree oil for good measure.

Looked it up... Was just common rash from an allergic reaction ;] but at that time I didn't know and I freaked myself out into thinking it was something worse. *sigh*

You'll be ok. Maybe get some tests done to reassure yourself.

Ellen,

I'm sorry that you're having such a difficult time. All that you are describing could be anxiety, but I'm not a doctor, and don't know what kinds of tests you've had done, etc. I used to get weird symptoms like that, and my doctor performed a neurological exam in her office (no scans), and declared me healthy in that respect. It should be easy to do one for you, too. May I suggest that you tell your doctor that you're having anxiety and need to see a therapist? It might just be time for that.

Oh my! Could you be my twin? I freak out when the unusual happens too. I had a rash come up on my face for no reason a few months ago. Only on my face but by my reaction you would have though it was my entire body. Your chi/trex analogy is familiar too. I was once told that when you have anxiety a stomped toe becomes a broke foot. I fear that I'm goin to cause my stomped body to break itself from too much worry.
