Face Tingling, Shaky Vision, Stomach Pains, Numbness In Legs, Back Pains Post Eating Outside, Diagnosed To Be Anxiety. Guidance?
Hi I have been feeling tingling on my face and pressure like someone is pushing it down and pressure that runs from the back of my ear and makes my Vision shaky I feel out of it also fell like a weird tast in my mouth from time to time. Also fell like I can t breath like some one is taking my oxygen from my body it makes my body fell frustrated and anxious. Fell shaky and my eyes fell a burning sensation. Stomach pain have to go urinate really fast. Numbness in my legs when I am asleep and my back hurts like a burning sensation. This all happend after 5 mint of going to eat at a restaurant. I went to the hospital they told me it was something that did not set well with my stomach and it had caused me to get a anxiety attack. But I think it might have somthing to do mercury . Can this be? its been a mouth in a half no more anxiety just all these symptoms. And if it could be well they do a test at the hospital?

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
It is likely that the symptoms which you are experiencing are anxirty-related. It is important to understand that anxiety can present with not only psychological symptoms but also with physical or somatic symptoms. Shakiness, burning or tingling sensations, breathing difficulty, etc. are symptoms which are commonly seen in anxiety disorders.
It is possible that you could have had a panic attack initially and the present symptoms are residual symptoms of anxiety. It is an unlikely clinical possibility that your symptoms could be due to mercury toxicity.
Wish you all the best.
Regards,
