Can this be Anxiety?

[bmwzw]

I have had 100's of tests and been to mayo clinic, All the Docs feel that it's anxiety and depression and sleep deprivation.  These are my symptoms: Can't fall asleep at night for a year, Body especially hands are shaking from that, back is burning up and sweating, Have the chills, and I have left sided tension headache.  I'm starting Lexapro 5mg tomorrow and they feel this will reset my sleep cycle, and help me out tremendously.

What do you guys think?  Can this really be anxiety or did mayo clinic miss something?  My symptoms are extremely Physical!

If they missed something they are bad at their job. What you have to do is accept their results. It is hard to imagine that anxiety can do so much to us. You mentioned a few things. Just read other posts. You will see the list is endless. It can bring about a lot of things. And at first we do think ' it just can't be anxiety doing all of this to me '. Just give the new medication 4 to 6 weeks and see if you feel any different at all. Allow it time to work. You may feel a little off when first starting something new. That is normal. You may feel nothing at all. We all differ. But the medication has to get into your system and begin to work. Keep us posted on a daily basis if you want to. How you are getting on with the medication and the likes.
