ANXIETY ? LET'S MAKE A LIST OF SYMPTOMS AND TESTS TAKEN TO HELP EVERYONE.

Reading everyone's concerns on this message board (along with my concerns) I thought it might be a good experiment(and a helpful reference guide for everyone) to list ALL the symptoms they have had and ALL the tests that have come back normal and ALL the specialists they have seen that have concluded that it was all anxiety. If you can put it in a LIST FORM with no back story so it is easy to reference that would be great. The idea here is that we can help eachother by revealing the range of symptoms that anxiety can produce ... this might ease all of our minds and help us get back to the life we were intended to live ... HAPPY and HEALTHY : )
Here is my list:

SYMPTOMS:
FATIGUE
HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
FOGGY HEAD, CONCENTRATION PROBLEMS
FREQUENT URINATION
PINS AND NEEDLES FEELING
IMBALANCE WHILE WALKING
HEAVY HEAD
PAIN BEHIND THE EYES
COLD TOES/COLD FINGERS
PALPITATIONS
SOME SHAKINESS/CLUMSINESS
FLOATERS IN VISION

TESTS TAKEN THAT CAME BACK NORMAL:
ECHOCARDIOGRAM
EKG
BRAIN MRI
EYE EXAM
EAR EXAM
EMERGENCY ROOM EKG
4 BLOOD TESTS
STANDARD PHYSICAL

DOCTORS/SPECIALISTS I'VE SEEN WHO SAY IT'S ALL ANXIETY RELATED:
MY PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR
NEUROLOGIST
NUTRITIONIST
THERAPIST
CARDIOLOGIST
EMERGENCY ROOM DOCTOR
PSYCHIATRIST (FRIEND)

I have been having anxiety attack for longer then I can remember. Iam ADHD(diagnosed at age 5)...about 4 yrs ago I was perscribed antidepressents (none worked or helped) and Xanax 1mg 3x a day...recently I have had migrains and tingling feelings all over and constant chills that shoot through my body even when I'm hot. I'm in the process of schedualing a doc apt...but have no insurance so paying cash...I also recently went to ER bc I was having a panic attack my coworker said I was losing color and had a fever...ER treated me for migrain only though my blood in the iv was "black and too dark" yet they did no tests at all! I have now been experiencing constant tingling numbness chills and migrains going on 4/5 months...can all this seriously be related simply to my anxiety disorder?...I feel like its something more and plan to ask my doctor about cat scan and mri but again I pay cash...

Hello. I have been having the same things going on since Nov.2012. It is so bad that it has been pretty much controlling my life. It's horrible and no doctors know what it is and just say anxiety. If you have found out anything,please let me know. Thank you.
