What Causes Breathing Difficulty While On Medication For Anxiety And Depression?

I have had a hard time catching my breath for the past few months. My doctor did a chest xray, lung xray, eKG all normal. I still experience it on a daily basis. they seem to think is anxiety, but I take anxiety and depression medications and is not helping. I m scared that it could be something more serious

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have anxiety disorder. In that case, you need antidepressant that would help to control symptoms. Better to consult a psychiatrist and in case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
