New symptom of anxiety??

I have been geting this burning pain on the top left side of head i can pinpoint it with one finger i have ade a ct scan with out dye a mri without dye and a cta with the dye and nothing showd up other then sinus problems

This burning pain comes outta no where jast for about 30 sec then goes but i feel a lingering stinging pain after it has gone and all so when it happens my face goes hot it feels more on the brain then the scalp but my mind could be playing tricks on me once again

I thort i woes done with the head faze once all my scans came back fine

Could the scans missed somthing

Have you had a history of anxiety?  In my experience, anxiety can manifest itself pretty much in any way we can imagine.  My original experience with anxiety and panic came from concerns with my health.  Once I convinced myself it was not one thing, I would move on to another symtpom that I was convinced that was evidence of something that must be catastrophically wrong with me.  

Are you in counseling right now?

This *****, is hard to diagnose urself.. I mean u got ct scans and ur fine but yet u get weird symptoms.. It can be anxiety the more u think abt something is wrong the worst n panic u get...

Right now im getting weird head pressure but like chills n ringing/clog ear.. Like if i have no gravity.. Is scary.. I had a ct scan like 4 or 5 months ago it came back fine other then a lil bit of sinus.. Im scared.. But it can be anxiety too.. Or wax.. Idkkk...
