I think the weird feeling came before the anxiety for me, but is certainly connected. I felt sick, like the stuffy headed feeling of a head cold or sinus infection or even a migraine, but had no infection or headache. Off balance. I treated myself with rest, chicken soup, hot showers, even decongestants, as I thought surely I was catching something. My eyes and mouth would feel dry as if I had taken antihistamines. Because of the lack of real symptoms, I was sure I was very ill but the doctor would have no way to diagnose what was wrong, so of course the anxiety and wewpiness kicked in. After about two weeks and feeling worse and worse, I had searched the internet and suspected it was connected to menopause. The head feeling has, fingers crossed, disappeared since starting hrt, but the anxiety remains and the weepiness still pops up less frequently.
