background

I have suffered from extreme anxiety in the past, and know the symptoms, but I haven’t really had it for a good ten years. However, over the last year or so I have had a long run of different illnesses including mumps and in the last couple of weeks I have had a bad infection in the tubes to my testicles. I am now on my second course of antibiotics which have not yet worked. At the start of this I also had bad a bloated stomach and felt sick with odd pains too. This is still really bad now 3 weeks on and I don’t know if it’s connected to the testicle infection or if there is something more sinister going on. During this time my anxiety levels have risen through the roof. What do you think?

When we feel stressed or anxious our body responds as though we are under attack, releasing a surge of adrenaline which can cause a number of baffling bodily behaviours including palpitations, shortness of breath and even a dry mouth!
