Hello,

I passed carefully through your question and would explain that anxiety can trigger this entire clinical situation, by leading to hyperventilation.

Anyway, I would also recommend performing some further tests to investigate for other possible causes that may lead to this clinical scenario:

- Complete Blood Count for anemia
- PCR, ESR for inflammation
- A chest x-ray study and pulmonary function tests to exclude a lung disorder
- A resting ECG
- Blood electrolytes for any possible imbalance

You should discuss with your physician on the above mentioned tests.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka
