Possibility Of Having Seizures

Hello, I ve had a CT scan done yesterday because I ve been feeling very ill. I ve have had non stop nausea and leg/arm shaking, and when I breathe my chest is shaky. I feel weak all the time, and when I go to bed I begin to shake violently and it feels like a seizure. I have had blood work and it came back fine, and no calls from my CT scan yet. I ve also been feeling very un-balanced and dizzy, and can barely stand. I go to school and feel sick all day. I m 17years old, and I have bad heartburn and anxiety. I try not to worry over the symptoms. Just another thing, my ears have been feeling pressured as well as my eyes... And I get very strange head rushes, it feels like waves in my head. I m really scared, I have no clue what this is! Help please!

I read your question carefully and I understand your concern.

Regarding of your worry about seizures I do not think that is the case, there is no indication in your description about seizures at all. Even those shaking episodes do not constitute seizures because such convulsions would be accompanied with loss of consciousness.
The most probable cause judging by the combination of those symptoms which involve many different systems, not anatomically related to each other, would be anxiety.
Some blood tests for infections as well as thyroid function should be done though.

I remain at your disposal for other questions.
