Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello,
welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Your symptoms are related to stress and depression. Depression can manifest not only with psychological symptoms but with a variety of physical symptoms also like: Tingling, numbness, hot and cold sensations, palpitation, tremors (shakiness) etc.

In history you mentioned that, you are already receiving treatment for depression. Your current symptom may related to residual depression. It is better to get re-evaluated by your psychiatrist to investigate and treat these symptoms effectively.

Same time do some relaxation exercise like daily brisk walk, yoga and breathing exercise, which will help you in fast recovery.

Wish you good health and all the best.

Regards,
