What Causes Numbness In Feet, Dizziness With Hot And Cold Flashes?

my son has been having symptoms of numbness in his feet, dizziness, and hot and coldness.... he went to a Med Express clinic and they took blood pressure,, it was a bit high but then after a while it was normal,.. they drew 3 units of blood to have tested and they did an EKG which was fine. he is 30 years old and he has been anxious. His mother passed away last year....I have a new lady in my life since my wifes death and that has caused some problems with my two children... my daughter and i have been to some therapy sessions to deal with all of the drama,, but my son say s he does not think he needs that. I disagree, and have offered to cover the cost with my therapists... there is heart disease on my side of the family,, my grand father died at 56 ,, my father died at 57 and I had a heart attack at 60 after my wifes death...

General & Family Physician 's  Response
dear friend
the issues that you have informed and the symptoms your son is having, do point towards the origin of the symptoms being psychosomatic.
it is advisable that he sees a psychiatrist and get assessed for generalized anxiety disorder. The condition is quite debilitating to the individual and in the long term damaging to health
