Hi. It's my 1st time here in tumblr. My cousin recommended this social media app where she told me I can find so many posts or forums about anxiety and panic attacks. I am experiencing it again after 2 years of no "attacks" at all. 2015 when I started feeling of being anxious and thinking I was about to die because of having heart attack like symptoms but found out that I was having anxiety when I'm gone for a check up and laboratories. ECG is normal. Thyroid tests is normal. 2015-2017 I suffered almost everyday having these heart attack like symptoms. I was in a BPO company by then and almost everyday I go to the clinic to have my bp and heart rate checked. That's horribly and embarassing it was for 2 years. But thankfully, our doctor and nurses in that company were so kind and understanding of my situation. Actually our Doctor, she was the one who diagnosed me of having anxiety. She even did a counselling for me. There were times that we are just talking for about an hour. Laugh. And cry. I am very thankful to that Doctor because I begun to manage my anxiety. After 2 years, I feel better and didn't had any symptoms or being anxious. I felt free and so happy. That finally I can breathe and live a happy life. But just this 2020, it trigerred again. It starts with the shrimp. Yes shrimp. There's this one day I ate shrimp and felt dizzy after so I checked my bp and got surprised I had 160/100. That is the 1st time I had that one. Normally, I had 90/60 - 120/80 bp. Then after that day, it all started. I began feeling anxious, had palpitations and checked my bp everyday and it went on a high bp result. So, I decided to go to a doctor again and had a check up. Again, Normal ECG. Normal thyroid tests. So they are ruling out it's my anxiety again. ( this is a different doctor. I told her about everything. That I had anxiety 2 years ago and been okay for 2 years and now I am feeling anxious again since I checked my bp after feeling dizzy when I ate shrimp ). So she gave me propranolol for the palpitation. And we are gonna be doing further laboratories for us to say that I was being hypertensive or having a hypertension. But, she was ruling out that it was my anxiety again. Is there anyone here that had the same experience with me? Please help me. I am so scared. I have a 2 years old daughter and I don't want to die.
