What Causes Difficulty While Breathing Deep Along With Anxiety Attacks?
For about three weeks I have been experiencing difficulty taking deep breaths. Recently, it has created anxiety which exacerbates the condition. I have been tested and cleared by a pulmonologist who did a chest X-ray, asthma tests and a CA T scan ,all of which were negative. I do have arterial sclerosis and had stents implanted about 11 years ago and all my stress tests, the recent one which was in August was negative. What else could cause this condition?

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with difficulty in breathing which is exacerbated with anxiety i am suggesting that a possible hypertensive disease
In view of this please check your blood pressure to rule out this condition
Moreover you also need to schedule an appointment with a psychologist specialist for further clinical assessment Councelling and adequate drug prescription
I hope this helps Regards
