Intusive thought
Over the past 3 months I had panic attacks with dizziness, chest pain, fear of death. Consulted ENT, Ayurvedic, Cardiologist, then Gastroenterologist. Endoscopy showed GERD, LPR, H. pylori. Anxiety reduced after diagnosis but intrusive thoughts began (vivid dreams/images of harming self/others, “what if” scenarios). No intent, but distressing.
Physical symptoms: chest pain, right-side neck/ear pain, one-sided head pain, fatigue, numbness, detached feeling. Labs: Vitamin D very low (14.99 ng/mL), calcium 9.9, B12 injections ongoing.
Medications: Nexito 5 mg (vivid dreams), Paroxetine ER 12.5 mg + Peelar 20 mg (worsened stomach), Magnesium glycinate (helped briefly, reduced intrusive thoughts last 2 days). Quit smoking/drinking 3 months ago.
Anxiety fluctuates; stress/news/work trigger panic (latest after office fight). Still working but fear losing control. Financial strain from repeated visits.

Based on your symptoms and history,i recommend you to consult a Psychiatrist and a dietitian who understands the gut brain axis. It is a critical next step for your unique combination of GI issues, severe nutritional deficiencies, and psychological distress.
Next Steps
GERD and H. pylori can cause non-cardiac chest pain and dizziness, triggering panic, they are also associated with malabsorption, which can worsen mental health. You must address your critically low Vitamin D with a high dose loading regimen, as maintenance doses may not be enough. To manage financial strain, focus on stabilizing your physical health first.
Health Tips
what youâre feeling is a physical glitch from the Vitamin D and H. pylori. We know the cause, and weâre fixing it. These symptoms will fade as you heal. Iâm right here, and weâll get through this together...
