Could Light Headedness,light Cough And Lower Back Pain Be Caused Due To Stress?
I'm light headed, and have a light cough but only here and there, not constant, and my lower back hurts. Along with my shoulder area being really tight. I had stomach pain last night almost like a reflux pain. I'm wondering if it is all related and what it could be. Could it be stress related as I'm taking care of my 76 year old divorced Mom who is terminally ill with stage 4 ovarian cancer that is no longer being treated. I'm the only care giver since she is an only child and so am I. I'm wondering if these symptoms can be caused by stress?

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
You are in stress and due to stress, you are facing these symptoms. You can try some antidepressant with low dose anxiolytic. You can also do some relaxation exercise that would keep to calm or relax. Better to consult a psychiatrist for proper diagnosis and management. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
