Burning sensation in legs/body.. Anxiety?

[hockeycrazy3033]

This past summer I went to the ER twice in a matter of days as I had a fast heart rate, numbness, dizzyness, etc.. They ran a bunch of tests on me and found everything to be normal. I've been to the doctors since then and they've taken tubes of blood and tests came back normal as well. I've also been to a cardiologist twice in the last month because I constantly worried about my heart thinking it was WAY too fast at 100-120 beats per minute. That's when at rest to! They did an ultra sound, ekg, holter monitor..etc and found everything was normal. My doctor then told me he thinks it's my nervous personality/anxiety that is getting my heart rate up and keeping me paranoid..etc. I mean it seriously is the most uncomforable feeling in the world. I'm ALWAYS paranoid that I've got some illness. I'm constantly looking up symptoms online and when I find one I automatically think I have a problem..then I get scared and my heart starts to race..etc.
Lately I've had this fear of diabetes! First I had the fear of cancer, but now it's diabetes. im  always so paranoid and just because I have frequent urination Im all worried thinking I have it. And to top it off I've had burning sensations in my legs today for no apparent reason. It just feels like sunburn and I look at it and it's not scratcher or anything! Then I go back and think OMG this could be a sign of diabetes..so of course I get freaked out all over again.

I suffer from very bad panic attacks to. I feel burning in my face sometimes, eyes, head, arms and back, feels like I am on fire. I also get very dizzy, can't stand up and I feel like I was fall on my faCe and passout, anything with movement makes it worse for me. I break out in hives, and sweat..I feel chest tightness, or something stuck in my throat..I been to the doctor and was tested..I am just vitamin defecient, but I am also under weight, which my thyroid is fine,,I don't have cancer..my heart is fine, been tested many of times..panic does and will make a person feel crazy and not intouch with what is happening around them..i been there many times and it really ***** bad..i know what you people are going through..

the burning is only one of the many symptoms i have developed ever since battling with anxiety.
it's scary and frustrating, and to make things worse this "burning" is also a side effect of some of the medication i have been prescribed, so right now my doctor(s) don't even have answers for me if i ask them what may be responsible for what i'm feeling.
good luck everyone

I am new to Anxiety, which is what my doctor has been constantly reassured me it is. My symptoms just appeared one day and they have gotten worse over the past 2 1/2 months. Doctor has had me temporarily taking Xanax, but has moved me on to Zoloft. I'm only one week on Zoloft, and noticed that I'm not quite as depressed, but still having the panic attacks and weird sensations throughout my body, such as tingling, rapid heart beating, shortness of breath, loose of appetite, and now a burning sensation has come up. It started in my chest  and has moved to my arms and upper back. I too had a EKG which was normal and last night had a MRI, needless to say, very nervous for the results.

Finally, to my question for you- you mentioned you were on Zoloft. How long have you been taking that and has it helped you. Does it help the physical symptoms go away? I look forward to hearing back from you. Thank you!

Hi everyone.Im glad Im not the only one feeling these super crappy feelings and pains aches etc. but also i feel for all of us as its down right terrible!! im a 21 year old male and i started to feel all of these things at once when i quit smoking pot.i dont know if its the after effects or if the pot was masking or suppresing these feelings.all i know is i have a constant worry about everything.i even have to check my pulse to see if my heart is still pumping!..basically im feeling what all of you feel.Ive gone to so many doctors and i always get the same results where nothing is ever wrong with me.i have found that if you keep yourself busy and work on being positive and keeping your mind off of thinking that your sick always has worked.if you know your healthy then reinforce it and keep positive!it works!even as i type this im feeling better!haha
but good luck to everyone and keep positive because eventually the negative will really wear you down.
