Question

Answer 1

Were one of those 11 doctors a neurologist?

You should go back to your primary care physician and get a referral to a neurologist. If they don't find something, then try a psychiatrist.

Answer 2

Do you feel anxious? If not you probably don't have anxiety (other than worrying about your lightheadedness and numb hands!) Sounds like a cheap copout diagnosis to me. There has to be a reason for these other problems. May be a long shot but talk to a Chiropractor who does upper cervical work (google it). They can help you with the other problems, which may be coincidental to your anxiety.

Answer 3

my mom tells me during the school year that i don't sleep because of anxiety and during the summer its because I go out more but I have that same problem.

I tend to hallucinate at night and see things (not sleeping) and my hands and arms sometimes go completely numb. Go to a better doctor, one that specializes in these type of things because I am pretty sure it is not anxiety, esp. with the numbness.

Answer 4

If you're having anxiety attacks and are hyper-ventilating, that would definitely create light headedness, tingling and numb sensations. Do you think that's what might be going on? I used to get panic attacks in my twenties and it was almost debilitating until I started taking some meds- then, my life improved immensely. I hope you feel better soon...

Answer 5
