Can Difficult To Breathe, Chest Tightness Indicate A Panic Attack?
I just woke up feeling breathless, difficult to breathe, chest tightness, my body was tingly, and I felt all the blood rush back into my head and body as soon as I could catch my breath. I was just diagnosed with having an anxiety/panic problems and have had blood work done (they said everything was health). I m really scared right now, was that a normal panic attack experience? I went to bed having an anxiety attack, and woke up to this about 2 hours later.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I appreciate your concern, if you have history of anxiety and depression then the complain that you have stated here could be because of this only and would not be any thing else, try to keep your stress level low, better to have advise form psychiatrist, hope this information helps you have a nice day.
