Uneasy feeling

I am 31 yrs. old.  I had a embolic stroke about 3 months ago.  I have fully recovered from the stroke as far as everyone has told me.  About 5 days ago I started to get this uneasy feeling.  I have this feeling all of the time.  I am taking plavix, anagralide, and hydrea.  I started my period about 5 days ago and as soon as I started I got the uneasy feeling.  I am constantly worried about every little feeling I have.  I have a lot of anxiety. I don't want to get out of bed or do anything because I am afraid of something happening.  When I get my mind off of things I don't feel bad but as soon as I am not preoccupied it comes right back.  I am just wondering if this is normal?  Does this have anything to do with my period.   I am going to see my doctor later in the week.

Make sure you're not anemic when you have your period.   It's common to feel "on edge" after a stroke but don't let it stop you from enjoying your life.   If the doctors have a relatively good explanation for your stroke, you may be getting the right treatment to prevent the next one and it may not happen for a long time or at all.   So go out there and enjoy life!

You need to explain your "feelings" to your doctor.
Do you use Splenda as a sugar substitute? Do you exercise regularly?
You might want to ask your doctor the reasons for anagralide and hydrea. Google those names and read about what they're used for.
