my sister 3 weeks ago she went wrong, perhaps stress, perhaps something traumatic from excessive fear due to incidents in my country, don't know, I just need to know which kind of doctors to consult.
It all started with the pulse high 95 with feelings of heat in the head (but temperature normal) then aches in her face bones. she then felt the pulses in her whole body, neck, the back, even in the legs toes a kind of earthquake in the whole body. she consulted a general medicine and heart specialist who excluded anemia after blood test and said it's tacycardia gave have 0.25 xanax. she felt better and the pulse went down. As she felt ok, she started back to study today for her thesis, soon a relapse occurerd, heat in her brain and a new symptom appeared she can't bear loud sounds
my question what kind of specialist we should consult i.e. type of doctors. could it be excessive anxiety. Also she can't sleep unless the air cooler is on due to excessive heat in summer during the whole night and even in daytime

Hi, anxiety can cause tachycardia and excessive sweating mostly in the palms. Her symptoms could also be due to hyperthyroidism, in which there is an excessive production of thyroxin. Palpitation and tremors can be seen with this disorder besides, thinning of hair, menstrual irregularities, irritability, diarrhea, nervousness, insomnia, heat intolerance and fatigue. This can be diagnosed by a simple blood test. So, I would advise her to consult her doctor for an evaluation of the thyroid profile. If this is negative then she can discuss the option of treatment for anxiety with her doctor. Regards.
she had irritable bowel syndrome in the past with other symptoms, but can it give her also the above symptoms of heat sensation without temperature and tachycardia and tremors
thanks
