A member asked:
Could cold hands and feet and even nose be the signs of anxiety?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes it can: Anxiety could be accompanied by autonomic features. When in danger, the body floods the system with adrenaline (sns), the hormone of strenuous action and “flight or fight”. These reactions are involuntary and can be responsible for strange physiological symptoms. From cold nose, heart palpitation or even encopresis.

Had a headache for 2 months, recently been stress. Side symptoms have included, dizziness, tingling head feet and hands, shakes, different head pains, had nausea when it first started. Headache is barely there any more. Is this from stress/anxiety?
I have occasional lightheadedness, and on other occasions I feel a head-rush similar to an adrenaline rush. I also sometimes have a tingling sensation in my feet and hands. Should I be worried about brain tumors or ALS? Or is this anxiety 101?
