What are these symptoms?

I am a 16 year old male

I just woke up and my face felt all tingling and my nose was kinda numb and painfull and my heartr was beating a little fast after I woke up.  what's up with that?

before hand I had some anxiety/panic attacks wich seem to have been dieing down but now it feels like it moved on to this constant irregular heartbeat and shortness of breath. sometimes I will get a pressure in my forhead like it's swelling or getting bigger.  

maybe I should have ate more today? more water?  or what do you think this is? thanks

You've mastered something many can't, great job!  Anxiety can cause physical symptoms as you describe, but have your doctor check you out to know for sure.

Although many of your symptoms  can be caused by anxiety, you need to see your doctor to rule out all other causes first.  Talk to your parents about this, they need to know. If it turns out to be anxiety then the proper course of treatment can be decided.  I think  a little therapy would rid you of this.  You're young and we hear from a lot of teens,  getting control of your anxiety early is important.  See your doctor and go from there.  If it is anxiety, we're always here!
