Anxiety Attacks. Why Am I Experiencing Dizziness, Gland Pain, Nausea And Palpitations?
Hi! So I ve recently been having some pretty bad anxiety attacks . I m 17 years old with no health problems in my history. I went to the hospital because I felt like I was passing out about a week ago and they did a few blood tests and other standards (i.e.: blood pressure, EKG , feeling my lymph nodes, etc) and it came back with nothing wrong. I am still experiencing occasional dizziness, nausea, headaches, gland pain, anxiety, fear of death, and occasional palpation . Could this be something serious?

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
Your symptoms seem to be anxiety-related. Anxiety can manifest itself with not only psychological symptoms, but with physical symptoms also. If you are having recurrent such symptoms or having difficulty managing your stress, then I would advise you consult a psychiatrist for a detailed psychological assessment and further treatment. There are effective treatment options - in the form of medication or counselling / psychotherapy which will help you overcome your problems.
Wish you all the best.
