Hi and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your question...
I understand that you are excessively worried and anxious about your problem. It is possible that many of your recent symptoms could be anxiety-related. Feeling dizzy, palpitations, nausea, stange sensation in your head and body, this fear that something bad is going to happen can all happen with anxiety.
However, since you have mentioned in your medical history that you have "absence epilepsy", it is better to be cautious as these vague symptoms could be associated with that also. I'm not sure if you are taking medication for it regularly.
I would advise to to be on the safer side and so, visit a doctor and have a proper evaluation done.
Wish you good health and a speedy recovery.
