[quote=Anonymous]I just answered a second ago but I also wanted to say that my mom experienced major major health anxiety last year and we went to the ER like 4 times. It was head, it was nerve pain, it was stomach pain, it was heart palpitations, etc.....she had several work ups and ended up admitted for severe nerve pain but the resident doc pulled me aside and said that he suspected dementia, and deep anxiety which manifests physically. She was indeed diagnosed with stage 3/4 alzheimers right after. Once she started antidepressants and memantine her anxiety went way down. But until then she was like your dad--every day was the edge of a precipice for her and if another resident had something, she had it too, etc....[/quote]
