Hi Umair and welcome.

I am sorry to hear that you are suffering with these physical symptoms currently.

Have you had issues with anxiety previously, or is this your first occurrence?

Even when we are not feeling stressed or aware of our anxiety. ..our bodies can have reactions to it, such as you described.

You may want to try some of our stress relieving exercises provided in our Resources. (main page 1st post) Practicing these ever day can bring down over all stress, and reduce physical symptoms.

If you feel that you need further medical screening, you can certainly ask for a cardio referral, but you may find that focusing on anxiety management really helps before you even get to your appointment. :)

Wishing you the answers and relief you seek

Post anytime!

I am so glad that you have joined us, as your situation is similar to so many of us here. I am sorry to hear about your recently increased anxiety. Is there a known trigger that you can identify? Or is is just seemingly random. Sometimes it just comes out of nowhere, but if you can identify your stressors, that helps in taking steps to find ways of lowering the outside factors at least. What have you done or what are you doing currently for relief? Therapy and/or medication are two main ways of treating and managing anxiety. If you have not explored these options, you may want to set up and appointment with your health care provider to discuss these. If you have tried these in the past...maybe it is time to consider re-visiting them (therapy), or considering a change (medication?) for better results. We have a great Resource Guide here as well...full of effective self-help ideas. You can find it on the main page, 1st post. Take a look and see what seems interesting/helpful to you. Stick with us Umair, we are here for support.
