A member asked:
I have anxiety problem and feel terrible most of the time is it possible that my anxiety could be caused by an actual physical problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If not a cause, then certainly it can be a contributer. Thyroid, hormones, heart rhythm, metabolic issues among others can all play a roll. Best to get to a doc for an eval and bloodwork.
