I hope you get well soon. Praying for you :)
I’ve lost count of the number of blood and urine tests I’ve had after googling. Results always come back normal.
The other strange thing is that although I’ve always had mild hives with diarrhoea, these other accompanying symptoms only started becoming noticeable after I learnt what anaphylaxis is through a web search. And now it’s the first thing I fear whenever I get hives or diarrhoea.
I went to an allergy specialist too and he said it probably was either a mild allergy combined with anxiety or just purely anxiety. None of the tests done in the ER seemed to point towards a severe allergic reaction. Blood pressure was normal, there was no swelling of throat or face, ECG was normal.
I think it is important if you have an onset of symptoms to get checked out to rule out any other physical reason. Good that you went to the ER for an acute episode of this. But after that, I think it is important to visit your general practitioner to go over what is happening. A full physical is really important. If there are no issues found, then yes, it is amazing what mental health issues can create physically in our body. Your doctor then can direct you to the next step to work on treating this if anxiety is determined to be the main cause. Let us know if you have that physical. good luck
Also pins and needles in hands. But when I did go to the ER, the presence of reassuring medical staff seemed to help in calming everything down.
Also get extreme sensitivity to sound when this happens and feel very panicky to the extent I can get overwhelmed, lightheaded.
Normally when it happens, I also start looking up symptoms which makes everything worse
It also happens randomly and isn’t associated with any food or anything.
