please help

I was googling on the symptoms l have had for the past month and l came across anxiety. I have been in and out of hospital lately having had an extreme headache from nowhere which was accompanied with numbness of hands and a hot feeling on my head and legs.l was almost unable to utter words as my jaws would clench, dizziness, confusion and chest pain,so they took all the test and even a brain scan and found nothing.  I still have this feelings that attack me even when am at work,even while shopping..its a very strange feeling that lasts for about 20-30min. I am 34 year old woman and never been like this before. While my hands turn completely cold and numb,my  legs and feet feels like they are on fird.now l have scheduled to meet a neurologist to see if there is anything wrong. I feel like my head have this hot pressure inside. I am going crazy..is there a cure if it turns out to be anxiety?  Its a scary way of life if l will have to put up with it forever. My heart is beating like l have been running.  Please help

l am not anxious at all,not afraid of much in life really. all this feeling come from nowhere.the other day my mind was focused in a discusion  l was having in a meeting,and had to stop coz l noticed words started coming out slower and slower and the head felt filled up with some kind of pressure again.l didnt have a headache then.infact the past few days l havent had it only the other symptoms and chest pain.l am scheduled to meet a heart physician next week.

Do you feel anxious?  Scared of things you're not scared of.  If not, you don't have anxiety most likely.  Without feeling anxious, if this is all you're feeling, it doesn't sound like anxiety, it sounds vascular like migraines.  But I'm no expert.  I'm only saying that when you have anxiety you know it, it's mostly a mental thing.  The physical stuff comes later,
