Debi, how awful for you!! I was born and raised in Florida and remember how terrifying the hurricanes could be. I find it pretty much the norm that I can hold on during an emergency situation and then lose all control after its over. I think it may be a survival response, "Just keep going, if you stop now you can be hurt!" kind of thing. The physical symptoms are normal too I would guess, if you think about it people lose control of their bodily functions when they are frightened or injured and Frances was certainly a terrifying situation. Also, I frequently feel achy, sick to my stomach, and off food when I go through a severe anxiety episode. Hang in there! If it goes on though go to the doctor. Rachele
