Mommytobe asked:
I would really like to talk with someone who is going through the same thing. The first symptom I ever had was numbing of my hands, then a few days later my left foot, leg, arm and hand went numb. My throat closed up and my heartrate was extremley high. I thought I was going to die from a heartattack. All I could think about was my little girl living her life without her mom. So anyways, I went to the hospital and he told me I was having a panic attack. Few days later, it was not only my left side but also my right foot, leg, arm and hand.. ocassionally my head, face and lower back. I went to a different doctor and he said they werent panic attacks because they only affect the left side, is this true?? He said the numbness of my right side had to be from something different other than panic attacks but I personally think they are panic attacks but not 100% sure. No one has given me any medication to help it and its starting to become very bothersome and nerve wracking. Anyone else experience panic attacks that result in right side numbness?? Oh and sometimes I dont feel like Im having a panic attack but my limbs will still go numb and ive noticed that the attacks only come at night ???
