I recommend that you make a list of questions to ask your docter about & then maybe work on relaxing & enjoying this time in your life. By over-analyzing every single thing you're feeling, you can actually convince yourself that it's worse than what it really is. The mind is very powerful! You're body is going through a great deal of changes & you're likely going to feel lots of different things. Good luck to you!

last.one.for.me - 888 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I notice you post alot of questions etc relating your breathing/chest.. Perhaps you need to visit your doctor? Perhaps the symptoms are psychosymatic because you are constantly underlyingly anxious something may be wrong? I have panic attacks and extreme anxiety about breathing and all it took was for my doctor to run some tests and reassure me my lungs/breathing were normal and not of any medical concern and the attacks have dissipated and alot of the symptoms I felt have disappeared. Please get it seem to asap to avoid it spiralling out of control and becoming anxiety

I am asthmatic though so this didnt help. An inhaler for asthma works wonders - it maybe worth having a word with your GP. Good luck hun xxx
