So worried

[OtherMe]

Getting straight to the point. I have had problems for a while. I was refered to a neurologist last August, since then I've felt worse. I'm so scared I have something serious. Like MS (I know it's a possibility) or Lymphoma!! I got pregnant just as I'd seen the neurologist so I have had an agonising wait/worry. I am waiting for my mri date.

These are my symptoms. It's really impacting on my life with my toddler & newborn :-(

These are my symptoms:
Tingling feet/cellphone/mobile phone sensations
Burning/aching legs (throughout pregnancy) when I walk & still now :-(
Sore knees towards end of pregnancy & after
Numbness in feet at times but feel normal when I touch them
Jelly legs -can't walk far without getting them. They feel like lead weights.
Burning sensation to the skin on my mid/lower back - but this only came a few hours after labour/birth& has remained on & off.

Huge anxieties now. I get panicky in public or even with a group of family or friends.

My doctor just asked "are you happy?", to which I said yes (well I love my husband & daughter). It was a very tricky way of finding out how someone feels. I bottle everything up, so he needed to be much more specific, I just thought he was being odd at the time. I didn't know anxiety would be a potential prob. Infact I suffered post natal depression after my daughter & it took a long time til I felt normal again, if I ever did.... I am a very anxious person & everyone who knows me well, knows that. I used to fall asleep at night worrying about my families health & well being !!! Go figure! Sometimes I feel like I'm losing the will to live. I'm just stuck on a merry go round!

I'd say make sure your getting enough vitamins, see a doctor and the more you worry the worse it will get. Don't worry, you can watch a video called "four ways of letting go" on YouTube it can help tremendously good luck

Anxiety, Especially health anxiety can manifest itself in a myriad of ways in my experience with it. I convinced myself I had heart issues and tended to focus on all symptoms that I believed was related to heart health.

What is your doctor's intial diagnosis with this?  Does he believe you are experiencing anxiety/panic attacks?

I start walking funny & feel like I need to sit down ASAP. After a sit down I feel a bit better. Generally I feel shocking.
