Hi Anxious-bunny21, anxiety and depression can cause both but you really need to see your doctor to make sure nothing else is going on.

Investigated ?

Certain medications can cause those and other symptoms. I have both those problems and others too, and in my case the culprit was a short course of fluoroquinolone antibiotics (cipro, then avelox) and the reactions were delayed. Avoid that class of antibiotic even if you have not taken one, as there are other options and those can have nasty after effects.

Not what you're looking for?
