I also have that issue of panic and aniexty. and for over a month my eye has been feeling numb and just kinda a dry feeling.. I asked my Doctor about it and she had me ask my nero. and now they are testing me for stroke.. I am nervous so I am thinking it maybe just stress. I hope to find out something soon. just wish there was something to ease it up a bit! If you find anything remedies plz. let me know .. I also get numb feeling in my arms and legs and loose my ability to move them would that be from stress to?
I have the same problem i think, my left eyebrow/eye has bern numb for i think 3 weeks and today my eye had been hurting me,and my ears seems full to, i spoke to my gp about the numbness she said it was stress. I do suffer from anxiety n panick attack, and i have had alot off stress lately. Also because of the numbness i have been playing with my eye alot.
Thanks Jules and Annie. My ENT told me I could have my thyroid out if I wanted to. Maybe that's what I'll do for vacation this year. Who knows. I think I'll keep it for a while longer and just get back on my meds.
I know what your talking about I have that strange feeling in my right eye. The right side of my thyroid is slightly swollen I can feel it in my right ear and the it goes up to my eye. Before I ever felt it in my eye I had an eye exam and the doctor said you shut your right eye slower she said that is part of Thyroid eye disease. I thought she was crazy then 3 months after the exam my eye started to bother me. I went back to her and she ordered a CT of the orbits and it showed mild thyroid eye disease. I thought maybe it was the antibodies attacking but, My GP said you can not feel antibodies! I swear you can! Your not alone , I just wish we knew what it was.
Yup, same boat, and it's barely staying afloat! After awhile, you get used to it, though lol.....
DULL EYE -- that is a great discription!!! Too strange. I just want relief of it all! Swollen glands are not helping the issue!
Yes! Mostly in my left eye, on and of for months. I was describing it as a dull eye. I also had intermittent shooting pains in that eye, and blurry vision. If I looked in the mirror with one and then the other eye my face looked redder through one and orangey in the other. I have TSH 12.7. Other issues include arachnoid cyst and pineal cyst, possible rheumatic fever. I've been going around and around with these symptoms looking for which problem is to blame.
I have also had numbness coming and going around my right eye. That is just bizarre that I am not the only one. I too have a swollen sick thyroid.
Thanks Jules! I see you are still in the same boat as me..... NO ANSWERS!
I have numbness around my left eye, but the right side of my neck is the enlarged side...and I have a general weakness/decreased sensation down my left side, but it's most noticeable in my facial muscles since I'm constantly using them. I hope you figure out what it is! Maybe your doctor will order an MRI or CT scan of your head...that could be helpful.
