This diagnosis means that my anxiety manifested itself into physical symptoms like the out of control shaking of all my body. I do not understand this. I have never had such an experience except for one time where it was a side effect of my AP.
What do you guys think? Does this make sense to you? I do think it was my medication. However, I am feeling better now. So they may be right. I am going to force myself in to see my pdoc. This public facility does not allow a patient to see their pdoc in advance of their original appointment.
