Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
Your symptoms could be anxiety-related, probably a mild panic attack. Anxiety can manifest itself with not only psychological symptoms but also with physical symptoms. However, more details such as your age, sex, past medical history, treatment history, etc. is required to get a clearer picture. If you are having recurrent such symptoms, then I would advise you consult your doctor for a detailed evaluation.
Wish you all the best.
