Have they slacked down any? Are they as severe as the day they started?

I'm 2 days behind you at this point. The anxiety, dizziness, picking skin, hot cold rushes, and BP spikes have slowed way down. However I just could not shake the nausea, chest and back pains. After a fairly long night I decided to visit the ER this morning. No big rush, no 911, I just got out of bed, took a shower/packed a bag and went. After a few pokes, prods, and a CT scan. I was given a good bill of health with the exception of "possible" acute pancreatitis/gastritis. There was no physical damage to the pancreas that could be seen and the blood work showed that it wasn't impared. The Dr. said it could be under a little stress. So here we go with the clear liquid diet until we see some improvement. He prescribed me some Protonix also.

Have you taken the little trip to get checked out? I feel way better now that I got some concrete evidence that I haven't totally destroyed my internals quite yet.
