Last couple weeks have been rough.

I've been really stressed out the last couple of weeks. Between what's going on in our country, finances, my 7 yr old grandson being taken to the ER, my son rear-ended on the way to see my grandson, not being ready for the holidays, my brother-in-law being in an accident on Halloween night and finding out it may have been attempted suicide.....it's been overwhelming. Needless to say, my anxiety has been way off the charts. I went to my doctor last week for a medication follow up earlier this week and she said my B/P was a little high but nothing alarming and to keep an eye on it. I also get very nervous around doctors. Last couple times I went to urgent care for sinus infections, my B/P was fine. Anyway, I've been lightheaded alot, cold, then hot, hands cold, feet hot and sometimes tingly, stomach in knots off and on and just feeling like I've been beat up. I know exercise helps but I've been doing brisk walking everyday for a half hour during my lunch break and it's not helping this. Has anyone else felt like no matter what you do, you can't shake the crappy feeling????
