For about two weeks, I have been experiencing these symptoms:
1. Nausea (have vomited once)
2. Inability to Focus
3. Inability to concentrate and focus
4. Racing heart beat
5. Shortness of breath
6. My head is very scattered and I can't focus my eyes on anything, almost the feeling of being drunk
7. Weakness & fatigue
I can't go to the doctor until December 15th after my finals. Any ideas of what I may have and should I go to the doctor immediatly or can I afford to wait?

I don't drink caffeine or energy drinks (I'm sensitive). I am a college student and I'm not taking anything except vitamins.

I get all those symptoms during panic attacks except for not being able to concentrate. I would go ahead and go or at least call your doctor and tell them your symptoms and ask them what they think. They will tell you the severity of it. You might just be stressing because of finals.

This isn't migraine symptoms at all but considering you say after "finals" I assume you are a college student? Are you drinking too much caffeine like energy drinks or too much coffee? For some reason have you decided to take diet pills to loose weight for Xmas? Those symptoms sound more like too much caffeine or the diet pill jitters.

These are some pretty serious symptoms - if you wait, you might be gambling with your life, or end up with some permanent neurological problem. This is way more important than finals. If it were me, i would turn off the computer and go immediately to the emergency room.

Your health should never be put on hold due to finals or even work issues. You should never put your health on hold for anything. You should get on the phone and call your doctor to see if they can fit you in ASAP. With symptoms like these, it could be almost anything.

Time does not permit me to question you about your diet, sleep habits and related lifestyle that is pertinent to diagnosing your symptoms.
Despite your statement that you must delay visiting a physician, I strongly encourage you to STOP what you are doing and take care of YOURSELF first.
Prioritize your life, girl.
If your health fails, NOTHING else matters.
Get it?

Instead of asking a bunch of unsympathetic people on Yahoo Answers, maybe you should go to WEBMD.com or call your local physician.

I think you answered your own question when you mentioned 'finals'. It is probably STRESS a little stress won't hurt long term but prolonged stress can be lethal.
