Am I the only one who is experiencing physical symptoms after the death of a loved one?I am experiencing an irregular heartbeat after the death of my husband. Then, I developed an intense pain in my back which comes and goes and now headaches. So in addition to the mental pain grief is now expressing itself physically. Am I crazy? I am so acutely aware of this that I am now questioning myself that I am actually experiencing the pain. I had myself convinced that I was not experiencing the extra heartbeat, until my cardiologist confirmed its existence. Has anyone else experienced physical pain as a reaction to the loss of their loved one.
