Answers:
I believe it's anxiety!. You are so anxious about the tampon, it's causing anxiety!. Anxiety can be accompanied by physical sensations such as heart palpitations, nausea, chest pain, shortness of breath, stomach aches, or headache!. Physically, the body prepares the organism to deal with a threat!. Blood pressure and heart rate are increased, sweating is increased, bloodflow to the major muscle groups is increased, and immune and digestive system functions are inhibited (the fight or flight response)!. External signs of anxiety may include pale skin, sweating, trembling, and pupillary dilation!. Emotionally, anxiety may be experienced as a sense of dread or panic!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
