Question Need help
About a month and a half ago, I had a really bad anxiety episode and saw a psychiatrist. I had many physical symptoms like tingling in my hands, itching all over my body, feeling lightheaded, nausea, and more. I’ve managed to get through the worst part, but I’m still not 100% recovered from the anxiety.
About 3 weeks ago, I started getting palpitations and sweaty hands after eating carbs or something sweet. I also feel very agitated and anxious when this happens. The palpitations can last for 1–2 hours. This has never happened to me before.
I’ve had several check-ups and blood tests, and everything came back normal. I’m wondering if this could be related to anxiety, blood sugar/insulin, digestion, POTS, or something else. I’m quite worried about it.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and for any help or advice. I really appreciate it 🙏🏻❤️

I would say it's very possible to be anxiety/mind related. Our minds plays very dirty tricks on us, even sending a lot of symptons, and weird ones.
Even so, you should keep checking to be sure everything is really ok. Always say "oh, its just my mind" is very dangerous, as It can be something someday. If you already checked everything for physical conditions, would suggest a psychologist or psychiatrist.
Hope you get better!
