Never Ending Spiral

Hi All,

I have always had anxiety and been a bit OCD. But over the course of the last year things have become much worse.I have always been very healthy and took very good care of myself. But about a year ago I started to have really weird neurological issues and migraines just out of the blue.I had started to work out alot and it was about 8 months into the workout when all the neurological chaos started. I experienced severe weight loss and IBS too. My menstral cycle stopped and I had severe weight loss. I have had every tests know to man and the only thing that I know for sure is that I am vitamin D deficient and suffer from migraines. I have since gotten my physical health back . But my mental health is getting worse by the minute.
I obsess over my health all the time.Am I going to get a migraine? Do I have some weird undiagnosed autoimmune disease..It really never ends....
I am a total germaphobe and I wash my hands constantly.I have always been a hand washer but it has gotten really extreme. I am constantly using the alcohol antibacterial stuff too. I dont touch door handles and try to avoid anything that I know some one else has touched.
I  have times where I feel like I cant breath or swallow. My eyes move all the time. I will have numbness and tingling,burning,twitching.I have horrible migraines with aura.
My neurologist thought that I may have MS but it has been mostly ruled out at this point.But no one can tell me what the heck started all this in the first place....

I am confused and scared about how I am feeling. I know it is totally unjustified but I cannot help it.
One neurologist jokingly said that I was OCD ... Could this really be  a serious case of OCD and Anxiety?
At this point I dont know what came first the anxiety/ocd or the neurological issues...

Any input would be great....Thanks

Seek out a therapist or professional who specifically treats OCD, have them diagnose you to find out if OCD is your main culprit so that you can start getting treatment. They say it usually takes up to 15 years for most people with OCD to get the correct help for the obsessive compulsive disorder due to shame, lack of resources, or they just cant find the right therapy, so dont be one of those people. Get into church, start reading the Bible and develop a relationship with God, that will help you. Like you said, you have had every test that you can, but it's your mental health that is suffering, so seek a mental health professional. I'll keep you in my prayers, good luck. : )
