Keep thinking drs may be right and I have anxiety but my symptoms are so wierd. I have all the usual things like hot sweats, cold flashes, palpitations, strange feelings in head. But then I have others like weeping eyes that are sticky like their infected, crackly ears and lots of wax, changes in vision, my muscles continually ache all over even when I do very little, a sore throat, im wheezy, hot drinks hurt my mouth and my skin is sensitive to touch .
How can this all be anxiety
I gather from your Name above you are in your sixties, if not sorry.
It may be your body is short of Vit D3 and B12, those would help with joint pain. It may also be caused by the Menopause so your GP may able to help there as well. I went on the above vits as my body was unable to make sufficient B12 and that was affecting my joint pains etc
If you are having problems with your eyes, and have not had them checked I would make an appointment for an eye test, we are supposed to have them checked every twelve months. You can also purchase eye drops that may help, when you get checked over discuss that, regards eyes.
Personally I may not look on your condition as Anxiety, only your GP can give that diagnosis. Make a appointment, write a list of what is going on with your body, that will help you explain your concerns.
You can also get your ears cleaned out if needed, that why you need to see your GP.
As we get older many things seem to start and go wrong, they may not be something to worry about, you need to confirm that in Surgery
You mention you have sore gums as well, when did you last see your dentist, supposed to get checkups every six months, gums recede as we get older and the enamel becomes thinner and we suffer Dental Gum Pain
I have been looking at some past posts and I see your GP considers everything is down to Anxiety. If your Skin is dry try E45 Cream, also I use Goat Milk and Honey Soap, it seems to keep the moisture in your skin.
Purchase Aquatious cream, sorry for spelling, the cream is reasonable in price and you just put a dollop in your Bathwater then shower to remove the bulk of cream. If you shower or bathe every day your skin will lack moisture

Get your thyroid checked too. x
Go with your gut..if u think there is more going on..be ur own health advocate n get more opinions n hopefully a definite answer.
Best to u..
Feeling and emotions can guide you but the mind is stronger and to use it wisely and to program your subconscious mind carefully is what I have learnt,
Go get a complete physical. Have each symptom addressed. See the specialists like the eye dr.
Some of your symptoms seem more physical than anxiety.
I suffer from heartburn and that is part of my anxiety, sometimes some things are the body's way of dealing with things. If you feel that there is more to it, go back to GP and see someone different to get a second opinion.
Looking forward to the New Year - 2018.
Does it get better?
