If all tests come back negative(mri,emg) maybe more of them....I will be so thrilled. I am just mainly worried that my condition is progressing...I have dealt with anxiety all my life and I have never felt as I have in these past six months....my body is telling me that something could be seriously wrong...I was very angry when I put pressure on my temple and I feel as tho I put too much pressure possibly suffocating some nerves up there....it is really stupid of me to hurt myself. I used to smoke a lot of weed throughout college and I feel like that worsened my anxiety/anxious thoughts. I feel as tho if i can get healthy physically I can deal with my mental issues...obv I was unable to control mental side that night when I injured myself, but if I can get healthy again I think I have enough will power to control it especially if I am off the weed/alcohol...I havent smoked since a few days before the injury, but could def. limit the drinking further. Thank you for your input, I appreciate it. When I was younger I had to have emergency surgery for a stuck kidney stone, and you would think that would have woken me up a little bit...but then again I was in sixth grade at the time, and didnt change my diet so I ended up with another one senior year of high school...things are just rough right now...looking for answers in this life.
Health anxiety can cause all sorts of symptoms in my opinion. You are already worried, so in my opinion, we can tend to magnify or misinterpret everyday feelings as something that is catastrophically wrong when in fact it is harmless. You are doing the right thing by getting checked out but when you are determined to be physically ok, do you have access to counseling to confront your anxiety?
