Help, are these stress and anxiety related?

It will be a couple of days until I see my shrink but I have some questions because I feel as though I am losing my mind. I wanted to ask you all if you ever felt as though you were dying. I mean all the time. For some reason, I feel as though I am shaking constantly (internally) and I have constant dizzyness and a feeling that something terrible is going to happen. I can't help but think I have cancer (since I smoke) and that I am suffering from some sort of nuerological disorder. Have you ever felt this way on the road to recovery? I think I may go to a nuerologist and an oncologist. I don't know. Do you have any recommendations?
Thank you so much for your time.

Thank you so much for your response. I think you may be right about seeing a nuerologist. I just hope we can get through this.

I'm just going to start off by saying, you sound just like me! I experience the same thing. It started back in March, I started experiencing muscle twitching. First it started in my arm and then over the course of the month I started to get them everywhere. I think that is where the anxiety started. I went online and found out that muscle twitching is a symptom of nuerological diseases. Since then that is all I think about. I am afraid that I am dying. I was never like this before. I think it has alot to do with the fact that I am home all the time and have too much time to think. The more I think about it, the worse I feel. I wake up every morning feeling shaky and am also dizzy to the point where I think I'm going to pass out. I also smoke and worry that I have some sort of cancer. I went to see my dr and he told me it was anxiety. I am trying my best to control this thing because I don't want to worry my life away. I think if you see a nuerologist it may lessen your anxiety because you will know that there is nothing wrong with you. I have not seen one but almost think it would ease my mind and the anxiety will pass. Good luck to you!
