Feeling bad

I have been feeling dizzy lately with headaches which i never get.Also I have had alot of body aches,weekness,numbness in my arms,hands,and fingers,and alot of trouble sleeping at night.I also wake up sweating sometimes and i have had frequent urination.I take 20mg of paxil a day and 20mg of prilosec a day.I have been tested for all STD's, my lungs because i smoke,my liver,my pancreas,my thyroid,and had a endoscopy,but everything is normal.Do you think this could be all in my head or something more serious.Please advise.

sounds like your paxil is not giving its full effect, see if your doc can up your script on the paxil. sometimes 20 mgs is not enough.  goodluck

You did the right thing by getting checked out and finding out there is nothing physically wrong with you.  Remember, though, anxiety can take a toll on the body both physically and mentally.  In my experience, we can feel run down, have all sorts of aches and pains, and many symptoms which you describe all from stress.  Have you been experiencing much stress and/or anxiety for some time now?  Keep us posted!
