Hello bev. Did you manage to take the kids out for a walk today? (Weathers been a bit rubbish hasn't it?) Anyway all I can suggest is accept its health anxiety (which comes with some scary,unbearable physical symptoms) and keep telling yourself the symptoms your experiencing are anxiety and cannot harm you no matter how scary they are, I know its hard but they can not hurt you in anyway. Try keep busy through the day, which I'm sure you will with 3 young children:) and have lots of you time when they go to bed spend it relaxin nice warm bath,listen to music, read a book watch a nice dvd with your hubby:) things will get better I promise!
