Problem with throat and stomach

[MVance2727]

Hi, I had H- Pylori when I was 16, which was 5 years ago. I never experienced anything like it before. I couldn't eat and I had chest pains, stomach pains, bloating and problems using the bathroom. I was so scared that it triggered panic attacks. Most of my family take anxiety medication and smoke heavily to deal with their nerves. I never experienced anxiety until then and I also never had a sickness worse than the flu. So this was the first time that I had been really sick. I spent 2 weeks taking a prev pack which was horrible. After that I had pains in my stomach, and problems with gas. I went to the doctor and they said it was the same thing so I took another prev pack ( this was about a year after the first time) I kept getting burning pains in my stomach and sometimes sharp pains. My bowel movements have been crazy lately as well. I will randomly get diarrhea, usually at night. I also have been having problems with my throat feeling right and feeling like there is something stuck in it. I have been having strange feelings in my feet. It is hard to describe. It feels like it's on the inside of my feet and I will also feel it in my stomach and chest. It feels like it has to do with my nerves or something. I also have like a shock feeling in my stomach sometimes. Its like I get a little bit of adrenaline for no reason. Every since I triggered my anxiety I can't keep my feet still when I try to go to bed and sometimes I have a shaky feeling in my legs when I wake up. I have been having problems sleeping and getting hot when it is cold in the house. I also have been getting really tired all of a sudden normally in the evenings around 7 or 8. But when I actually go to bed at about 10 I am wide awake. I have a job that requires me to drive a lot and sometimes I have the hardest time staying awake, but as soon as I have the chance to sleep I can't. Idk if anxiety and worrying has to do with it or if my stomach could cause all of this. I went to the doctor and I told him all of my symptoms. He done blood work and everything was fine. My thyroid was perfectly normal. My cholesterol was a tiny bit high, but he said that if I cut back on eggs and pork then it should go down. He said that it showed up H- Pylori but he said that it will always show up in my blood after I have it. He gave me Prilosec for 30 days to see if it's GERD. He said that he wants to take it one thing at a time instead of giving me a bunch of medications for all of my symptoms. When I go back in 30 days he said that he would check the other problems. I am almost 22 and I feel like I am 50 with my problems. I want to have a normal life while I am young. I hate going out with friends and feeling like this. I get nervous that I am not gonna be able to control my gas at the movies or anywhere publicly. I hate going to visit family or being around a lot of people because I am afraid that my stomach will act up or I will have a panic attack. I never know when my bowel movements are gonna be bad. sometimes it's diarrhea and sometimes it's constipation. There is so many things that I want to do but I can't because of my problems. This is taking over my life. I don't want to end up like my family and take nerve pills or smoke to try to deal with my anxiety. I want to do it naturally. I want to have a normal life again.

I would like to help you but this post is so long and circuitous that I am unable to do so. Can you  kindly re-post with what is going on with you now and list your symptoms and shorten it?
Thanks,I'll do my very best but can't answer this properly.
