Nervous&amp;lightheaded: Your symptoms can come from a variety of causes. They may be medical or psychological (anxiety) or a combo of both.  Please see your doc.  If he/she rules out medical, please see a mental health professional to learn strategies for stress management.  Be sure to mention "impending doom" which MAY be related to OCD but not always.

Question 5

heart palpitation , shortness of breath , sense of impending doom , lightheadedness, after getting sexually excited or trying to reach orgasm , what could be the cause ?

Accepted Answer

Hyperventilating: Your symptoms are characteristic of hyperventilation syndrome in which rapid respirations blow off too much carbon dioxide leading to chemical changes in the blood resulting in a drop in serum calcium. The cure is blowing into a paper bag and breathing the carbon dioxide. Try not to hyperventilate during sexual activity.

Question 6

ekg was clear: heart palps waking me, can't sleep, chest pain, sob, general fatigue and aches, sense of impending doom. whatbis the next step to take?

Accepted Answer

Next: Broaden view.: EKG only shows heart electrical activity, not causes. Yes the changes in heart rate &amp; strength of beat may be involved in your waking up with symptoms, yet neither are CAUSES, only symptoms/results of internal autonomic activity which split-second regulate heart/body functions 24/7.  Autonomic activity=mind/brain control extending into body. Fears/Terrors in dreams (amnesia on awakening)=cause.
