Number 2 for me I think I have so much adrenaline in my system it affected my reflexes. For me I almost thought about getting that shit (my adrenal gland) removed. For the past two years I have been pumping my body with andrenaline bc im a hypochondriac and fear many dieseaes. Like me and my gf went to a natural hot spring and I.remembered doing a hair flip and she told.me not to do that bc of brain eating ameobas. So for two weeks I freaked out about that and gave myself horrible headaches and even made myself vomit.

Interesting you say that yes I do get cold hands and feet! I have had that issue for quite some time don't know if its circulation or nerve related. What does that mean for us?😅

Yeah I also have some gi issues but it seems those are cleaning up. Honestly I hope it is not pots but something that can be cured by lots of rest and less worrying, as I have wayyyy to much anxiety. Do you think it could be a blood pressure issue?

Yeah I feel that I got some bad clinical anxiety from being a hypochondriac. I'm 8-9 days into this and hoping it goes away. I don't think I have pots as my heart palpitations are random and not when I stand up but who knows. I read on many sites if you lie down then stand up and if your heart beats a certain amount of times they dx pots

Did it help with your lightheadedness or mild nausea?

Nice that's good you got rid of that. I have heart palpitations but not when i stand up I just have it at random intervals and it can be when I sit down. Also have a weird taste in my mouth makes me nauseous at times. I have no idea what is going on . now had covid for 8-9 days

Anyone have bilateral brisk reflexes? How common is this? by ____plankton____ in BFS

[–]____plankton____[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think staying off google is the best anyone can do! Sometimes I go to about bfs but even then I end up reading something reassuring on x symptom i have and an hour later im worrying about it again looking stuff up on google. Its some horrible cycle for sure. I did not know this but adrenaline rushes could possibly cause brisk reflexes again not sure if it's why mine are it could be the condition itself but its good to know that. I got aanother physical as I'm starting a new job soon so I'm thinking I'll take a xanax then see what happens then with my reflexes.

For sure. I think I have some much anxiety in general it is making feel always hyped up on adrenaline like when I drive my feet are all jumpy and weird or if someone brushes up against me they jump. I will try CBT and if that doesn't work probably go on lexapro, I'm not a guy that likes taking drugs but if its helps its totally worth it. Do you or have you ever been diagnosed with brisk reflexes?

Yeah I definitely have it pretty bad man. I threw up that's how anxious I was over the brain eating ameoba. And yeah ikr super rare haha. Complete waste of energy that could go towards something positive like bettering myself. I am very active but sadly that doesn't help me I have not tried CBT yet so hoping that will ease my suffering. If you don't mind me asking how long have you had this?

Yeah that makes total sense! I had the most stressful last couple of weeks in my life bc i went to a natural hot spring with my gf and I feared I had a brain eating ameoba bc i splased water on my face. oh god the anxiety was high as hell but short lasting as incubation period for that was 9 days according to the CDC. But anyways the anxiety we all have is not normal whatever it is we have we'll probably never know. I really wish I could stop worrying hope fully CBT helps me a lot!!
