Hot flashes with eating?

Does anybody else get hot flashes after eating? I don’t think I present signs of MCAS, but I’ve also never been evaluated for it. Is it possible it’s just hot flashes from the blood flow redirecting to my stomach? I’ve had POTS for about 4 years now, and the hot flashes episodes with eating comes and goes from time to time.

When it’s late and nobody to talk to while anxious, sometimes I’ll use 7cups

This isn’t an advertisement or endorsement, but yearsssss ago I found an app called 7cups and every so often I’ll use it to chat with people to help me through my anxiety. You don’t have to pay to use it. Thought I’d share in case it might help somebody else who’s feeling lonely on here at 2am with no responses.

Morgan Wallen Concert, August 1st at Lincoln Financial Field

I’m not sure if parking passes were already sold for parking at Lincoln financial field for Morgan Wallen’s August 1st concert. Anybody have any info on that? Hoping to get a parking pass for a close lot since I’m handicap. Nothing on Ticketmaster about it or Lincoln financial field’s page.

Thanks.

Increased mucus from Buspar?

I’ve been on Buspar for 3 days now and I’ve noticed the mucus in my throat has been AWFUL. I feel like I’m choking on boogers 24/7, even while eating. Did anybody else have this side effect? I have anxiety about swallowing/my throat, so this is really discouraging.

Prolonged QTc Interval?

I’ve been under a lot of stress and anxiety lately. Is it possible for stress to prolong my QTc interval? In the past I took Lexapro that prolonged my QT interval, but I haven’t been on it in years.

In need of prayers. Anxiety invading my life.

I’ve had anxiety my entire life, it’s always came and went with the use of medication, but the last few months of my life have been difficult and stressful, my body and mind has just gotten used to assuming the worst. I’m leaning into the Lord for strength and guidance, but I’m still struggling. I’m starting a new medication today, hopefully it will help. I’m chronically fearful that something is wrong with me (I have chronic health issues that make me worry) and I fear the pain of dying. I guess sometimes I also fear that the Lord won’t accept me into His kingdom, but I trust that He loves me and Jesus died so I may live with Him.

I’m getting married in a week and I’m at the point where my anxiety interferes with my relationship with my fiancé. He’s frustrated and irritated with me, I’m fearful of leaving the house, I’m fearful of going anywhere (grocery store, his house, appointments, being in the car and just going anywhere) that he said he doesn’t feel like he knows who he’s marrying anymore. When I met him I was adventurous and didn’t struggle with my anxiety as much. I’m scared that I’m going to have a panic attack on the day of my wedding because I’m just that afraid of everything. I trust that the Lord will make the best of my situation, I’m just trying to endure until the end and seek Him for guidance and comfort and peace.

Please pray that I don’t have any more panic attacks or anxiety. Especially on my wedding day. I should be excited and happy to present my marriage to the Lord and invite Him into it, but I feel fear and dread just doing the whole ceremony. Also feel free to leave scripture for encouragement. Thank you.

Constantly paranoid about my blood pressure

I am having the worst anxiety right now because I’m worried about my blood pressure. It’s been consistently around 92/74, 90/75, 91/73, 97/76. I’ve been checking both arms and of course they vary slightly, I’m more stressed that the point difference between the systolic and diastolic is so small, like 97/76 is a 21 point difference. Or 92/74 is an 18 point difference. It’s supposed to be a 30 point difference. My anxiety is probably raising my blood pressure, but I don’t know how to calm down. How will I know when something’s actually wrong unless something bad happens?

How to Stop?

Hi there everyone, I think this would be a good place to ask, but I’ve kinda accidentally been doing the Keto Diet without wanting to. I don’t desire to lose weight, I just stopped eating as much overall and when I do eat, it’s not usually carbs. My doctor told me I’m in Metabolic Ketosis and I have a bunch of ketones in my urine. How do I like.. get this to stop? I’ll gladly start eating more carbs, but how long does it take for the body to clear out the ketones?

Thanks 🥲

Anxious about heart attack

I’ve always had a fear about a heart attack, but since I developed POTS a few years ago, I’ve always been nervous about my high heart rates. This past Saturday I had a panic attack because my stomach hurt from eating and drinking too fast and my heart rate went up to 166bpm, I was dry heaving, my left arm was tingling, my chest was tight, I felt like I was gonna pass out. Next day and today my heart rate has actually been within a normal range. 72-85 sitting, 100-115 walking. You’d think I’d feel better having a normal heart rate, but my heart rate is normally 80-90 sitting, 115-130 walking. Now I’m all paranoid I had a heart attack and it messed up my electrical paths and my heart rate is beating too slow that it’s making me dizzy. I don’t know what to do.
