What Causes Chest Pain And Breathlessness While Having COPD And Anxiety?

I have Anxiuety d/o, Meniere s disease and COPD . Lately, I feel shaky, get sweats, feel like there is a band on my chest and have breathing problems. It has taken me to the hospital and DR. I had heart stress test. Had no issues, Seems that the COPD is setting off anxiety and then the meniers. Very distressing when it happens.. Like I am going to die/pass out. I have been prescribed Meclizine, Clonazepam, Combivent Respiromat prn and Dulera x2 puffs daily. Still feel very weak at times, no energy, and activity/stress/heat sets it off. What can I do. I fgell out while teaching a DUI School 2 weeks ago. Do I have to quit work? i AM ALREADY DISABLED. tHIS KEEPS ME SOCIALIZING AND ACTIVE.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the chest pain with breathlessness with history of COPD and anxiety suggest anxiety induced manifestations with systemic response. Though medications will help to variable level of response, I would quote to opt for meditations and deep breathing exercises with YOGA to get best results ahead.

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

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
