Have Anxiety, Panic Disorder, Numbness In Cheek, Jaws And Dizziness
Hello. Im a 25 year old female and i have severe health anxiety ocd with obsessive thoughts, panic disorder and the past few days have been rough. Ive been experiencing a numb like tingling sensation in my left cheek and jaw that sometimes goes down my neck also and up my face too. I have some dizziness but mostly like an off balanced swaying type of feeling. My boyfriend told me tonight one of my pupils looks slighly larger than the other and now im scared out of my wits! I am TERRIFIED of an impending stroke. Please help! I usually hurt in my shoulders upper back middle back lower back sometimes my arms and ive also been very bloated and gassy. I do have GERD as my doctor tells me and my cardiologist recently diagnosed me with SVT and im on metoprolol for that. I have an appt the 15th with my GP but im so scared now. What could this be? Simply anxiety or something more serious?

Hello
If you really have OCD with Panic disorder, you need to be checked by a psychiatrist. He will put you on SSRI which have very good results.
