I had been suffering from supposedly panic attacks for the last 3 Yrs. Had all the symptoms. Visited, my cardiologíst every 3 months, just in case it was my heart. All studies done there, came back clear, nothing wrong with the heart. Went on seeing every specialist on everything to check why i was always scared and jittery, all said "its just panic attacks". Just this 4th of September 2018 i went into a total heartblock w/o any apparent reason. Was in coma for 2 Days now doctors say they cannot explain why it happened. Nor how i came back from being without vital signals at all AND going into a coma. I have been implanted a pacemaker. And now waiting to get a nuclear study done. Mind you i had no heart problems before. Nobody, no MD no spiritual assist, have a clue to what happened. And all my cognitive abilities are excellent. This was a close encounter with death. i am still looking for an explanation. All doctors have to say Is that i have an angel by my side. This week i Will be collecting all my medical récords on this event. All i can say Is our bodies are the most complex human machines.

I am so sorry to hear that you are going through this. It really hits home for me. I've been dealing with anxiety and panic attacks ever since an event happened in my life 3 years ago. I have been to the ER with chest pains afraid I was having a heart attack but it always comes back normal. A couple of weeks ago the E.R. doctor told me to get referred by my physician for a stress test and an ultrasound of my heart to rule out heart disease. I like you am always told that I'm feeling the way I am just because of anxiety. I am exhausted all the time, have a lot of troubles staying asleep, I have brain fog all the time, indigestion problems, aches and pains throughout my body, dizzy feelings. My chest pains have lessened since I've been taking Zantec so I believe my chest pain was from the acid reflux but that still doesn't explain my other issues, with my head feeling off all the time being one of my most annoying symptoms. It always scares me that there is something going on with my heart that is causing me to be sooooo tired all the time. No energy. You don't look very old either. I'm 47. My heart rate has always gotten way to high with just a little exercise too and now I'm wondering if I've always had a problem with my heart that they have never found. This kind of scares me. I hope they figure out what happened. Please keep us updated. Thank you.

Indeed i will. I suffered exactly the same symptoms, stomach issues that we're also addressed as IBS by my gástric physician, went to the neurologist for my dizziness too. But all analysis, Labs, etc.. came back clear. I am to get the nuclear study done to clear out what happened and Will keep you posted. But please don't think that the same Will happen to you. Just continue asking questions if you feel there is something wrong, if possible keep a journal, write down your symptoms with date and time, write down what you ate or did. Maybe it can help.Remember everyone is different. All i can say Is i did seek medical attention, But i cannot blame anyone doctor for anything. Keep calm, enjoy every second in life.

Thank you for your reply. I had a mesh bladder sling implanted in 2009 which eroded through my urethra 7/2015 and had partial removal 9/2015. There are so many of us "mesh" victims that have a lot of the same symptoms so we wonder if we could be having a toxicity reaction to the plastic mesh. Both my doctors are saying they don't think the symptoms are from the remaining mesh but I just don't know. All I know is that if what I'm feeling is anxiety then it will get much worse if I have another surgery to have the rest removed, due to the trauma to my body. I try to enjoy every minute of every day but it is getting harder and harder and it's beginning to take its toll on my relationships including my husband who has been a godsend through all of this, he has been so understanding and supportive. All I can do is pray that I will be led down the road to recovery. God bless you Jitterychic and thank you so much for keeping me posted.

You know i just remembered my sister in law, also had that mesh bladder sling implanted years ago and had it removed. She Is doing well now,she Is 49 now. I recall her saying that ever since she got it totally removed, her anxiety disipated. She thinks that just having part of the mesh inside her, had her thoughts going out of control. So maybe our minds need to be calm, please don't get me wrong, i am not saying it's all in your mind. There Is no doubt you have suffered all the pain due to the trauma caused to your body. Have you tried doing things you enjoy ? And in this way keeping your mind at ease. I know it Is not easy and i wish you the very best. Like i said before, take it one day at a time. Love much and accept all the love that comes to you.
