Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Hyperventilation can cause such symptoms. Anxiety or stress can give such problem. Using a paper bag and do rebreathing will be helpful to get relief from this. Keep a paper bag close to your nose and breath out air into it and rebreath the same air. This will maintain the normal carbon dioxide levels and clear out your problem.
Thanks.
I find this answer helpful
