: What you described does seem to be a cause for concern.
For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. 
Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

Question 10

since getting a headache during rigorous exercise recently i have been getting mild migraine type symptoms and anxiety attacks for no reason?

Accepted Answer

Would start by : Dropping rigor of your exercise routines. These may anticipatory symptoms.  Consider cognitive behavioral tx to break this early on. Breath in slowly & deeply through your nostrils. Fill your lungs with air (but not to the point of discomfort). Hold for a count of five then slowly begin to exhale through an open mouth. Repeat at least 12 times, longer if you need to.
