Why am I getting panic Attacks? Can’t burp?
I am 26 year old male married with 2 kids. I have been having shortness of breath for at least the past 5 years maybe stress related due to work or environmental allergies.
2 weeks ago I had my first panic attack. I was eating and all of a sudden couldn’t breath, I felt dizzy and got really worried I felt like my heart was going to stop. The ambulance and hospital said my vitals are fine and I’m perfectly healthy I just need to calm down. I took 2 weeks off work and the panic attack never came on again maybe mildly if anything. However yesterday I felt like I had so much gas in my stomach that I couldn’t burp if my life depended on it. I felt dizzy cause I couldn’t burp and now couldn’t breath. I went to the hospital again and I was fine. I was told it was another panic attack. This morning I woke up feeling like I was full of gas in my stomach and chest and couldn’t burp so I took an anxiety tablet and I calmed down. Fine for now. Why am I not able to burp?
I have taken all sorts of things to enforce burping but none of them work like Gas-X, soda etc. I also need to add that I was advised by the doctor to just relax which I did. I took 2 weeks off and did nothing but sleep and relax. I do eat regularly so I don’t see any reason why there should be any gas in my body. I eat very healthy. No fast foods etc. In the morning I wake up and have bran cereal with milk, then later I would have my lunch and then later dinner. I don’t know why now a days I am getting a gas that I can’t get rid of. Please help it’s causing me to get panic attacks because when I try to get a deep breath my lungs feel like they can’t expand because of the gas in my chest / stomach.
