Hi there i was diagnosed with anxiety about three months ago after getting short of breath and sweating and pains everywhere.I was also diagnosed with ibs.
Late monday night i woke up with what i thought was indegestion then i was short of breath then started sweating and there was pains everywhere even going up my back,i tried to lie down but this made it worse then out of the blue i was actually sick.It felt like the anxiety attack i had before but the pains were worse and lasted much much longer.Why did it feel like indegestion?could it been trapped wind or something that started it off?

I some times get pains in my chest that I usually put down to trapped wind, not sure about the pains up ur back n stuff, maybe that was caused by the tense muscles? I'm really not sure though. But the short of breath and sweating sounds like a panick attack yeah. But ask ur doctor about it and describe to him/her what u said in this message and ask their opinion if ur really worried = )
