I’m not sure if this is anxiety, b12 deficiency Gerd or something else

Hey i am 25 M I’m experiencing bizarre symptoms from last 8 months

History: i got jaundice in 2022 after that I got contamination ocd and health anxiety

In 2024 i got typhoid and was on antibiotics almost for 20-25.

I was under a lot of stress from march 2024 but i was able to handle it but in july 2024 i got typhoid and after recovering from it my mental health declined suddenly i was not able to handle that stress anymore and i was kind of depressed, i march 2025 I experienced cervical pain and lack of focus and mild depression but i was able to function my friend told me to get my b12 and d levels checked

My d and b12 both were severely low d was around 8 and b12 150 . My doctor prescribed me b12 and d shots I started the treatment but didn’t complete as my cervical pain improved in 5-6 days i only took 2 b12 injections and 1 month oral supplement and 1 shot of vit d and 60000 iu weekly for 8 weeks

I was managing the stress somehow , but one day i was just sitting on my chair and was not thinking anything but suddenly I experienced dizziness and shortness of breath it lasted for 10-15 minutes but it didn’t bother me much a after 10-12 days in experienced this again and after that ot happened 5-6 times in gap of 2-3 days after that the dizziness stopped I started feeling shortness of breath like 3-4 times a day almost for 6-7 days and yes my digestion was very poor . My health anxiety had increased a lot. And i lost around 4-5 kgs of weight I thought it’s cancer and was in severe anxiety for 7-8 days but I don’t somehow i got better in 7-8 days and experienced no symptoms for 20 days

And also i was managing my stress and my mental health was getting better

But suddenly one day i ate dinner very late at night and experienced severe gas , bloating and indigestion. When i woke up i was extremely dizzy and feeling out of breath from that day my symptoms are 24/7 . And this time the symptoms were persistent and i googled a lot and use to self diagnose. Earlier the symptoms were less but with time i got many symptoms some are on and off and some are almost 24/7

My symptoms are

Air hunger

Something stuck in throat and centre of chest

Difficulty in taking deep breaths

Swallowing problems

And suddenly one day i got panic because i felt like my throat was closing after that i got dpdr almost 24/7

My dpdr symptoms

No motivation, existential thoughts, no desires, weird vision, not able to connect with my surroundings, emotional numbness, loss of interest, light sensitivity, not able to read specifically on screens

Neck stiffness ( sometimes )

Back pain

Jaw tightness

Sometimes weird pressure in facial bone and forehead

Palpitations sometimes

Throat tightness

Chest pain and tightness

Fatigue

Severe brain fog

Memory problems

Esophagus pain ( early was only experiencing feeling of something stuck but from last 2 months I’m experiencing pain and trouble swallowing)and tightness this is one of the major symptom

Temperature changes

Weird dizziness (It feels like my head is not spinning but my vision in spinning )

Not able to study

Restlessness

Trouble speaking i feel chest pressure while speaking

And i feel inner vibrations in teeth when i close my mouth

Can only sleep for 5 hours

Severe mood swings

Anxiety

Depression

And dissociation is worse

Intrusive thoughts

Brain fog

I have some other symptoms as well

At present I’m experiencing

Vision problems- eye pain not able to focus and it’s hard to explain

Esophagus and throat problems- pain and burning in esophagus, trouble swallowing

It feels like my body is not syncing with my mind

Existential thoughts

No motivation

No desires

Loss of interest

Emotional numbness

Fatigue

DPDR

One more thing initially my b12 was around 120 but recently i was around 120 . I am taking b12 shots from last 2 months i took almost 7 but still no difference in-fact my esophagus pain and dpdr increased a lot after shots

I visited many doctors and most of them prescribed me antidepressants

My xray, ecg , cbc , lft, kft, lipid profile, sodium, chlorine, iron profile and other blood tests are completely normal.

I am helpless and clueless

Any help would be appreciated

Sorry, the post got a bit long

I really don’t know what to do i can not live like this anymore i stay at home most of the time , i can barely function and have developed cancer phobia.

I can’t even distract myself and several existential thoughts like what’s the point of living,purpose of life abd many more.
