I'm always having something wrong with me, I feel fed up and embarassed about as a person I know calls me "a hypochondriac".
Been having itchy ears, pressure and heavyness in my ears, it's mild, comes and goes but can be quite annoying, especially the itchiness causing me tension headaches.
I feel there's water in my head.
Nasal sprays don't work, had them twice. Tried nasal irrigation, that didnt help.
Chewing and eating releives it.
Told a doctor about it last week, but couldn't get a referral or rechecked because this doc. could only deal with one problem and had to choose.
I do have anxiety and mild depression, they make it worse, but sometimes it's enough to trigger them.
Out of the blue I get episodes of lightheadedness, low volume, humming sound is replaced with ringing in the head and feel I'm going to pass out.
This triggers anxiety, then the numbness moves from the head to my arms.
I'm also getting a tight back and sometimes stabbing pains in my lower and middle back, numbness in my body. Had a check up, doctor had no idea, but thought it was work related.
I read online anxiety can cause these symptoms especially with the ears, but so can MS, Menieres and other conditions.
How do I know if I'm just having another symptom of anxiety?
I feel fed up of going backwards and forwards, I feel awkward.
Its hard to know, I try to ignore it, but its still there.
I work with my dad and he's already complaining there's something wrong with me and they never find much. (Like he thinks I'm faking it or something.)
I often feel I'm wasting everyone's time, I try not to...
