Is Anxiety, Related With Black Stools, Sore Throat And Breathing Difficulties?
I am 14 years old and have a very healthy past with no serious health issues. I am in Rwanda and have been here for about 3 days. Just earlier today I have noticed that my stool was black and obviously the hospital here isn't the greatest. What should I do? I think you should know that I also have an anxiety disorder that is specifically about me worrying about my health. So this has obviously been a worry of mine. So do you think I should take the trip to Kenya or South Africa to see a better doctor or should I just wait until I get home on this coming sunday. Full List of Symptoms: Black Stool Upset Stomach Difficulty Breathing Soar Throat Difficulty Swallowing Feeling of choking
I believe that some of these symptoms are related to and from the anxiety but i though i should put that in.
Medications: Malarone (for malaria) 5mg of Celexa Occasionally taking .25 mg of clonezpam
