Panic Attacks, Dizziness In Crowded, Loud Places, Unable To Breath, Stress. Treatment?
I normally get panic attacks, but decided to learn to control them without the use of medication . Besides that, I Always feel dizzy, like im floating.. the room will spin out of no where like I got up to fast.. it happens everywhere, Especially if im in crowded or loud places. I hardly drink water. im 5 7 130lbs male. Sometimes, I feel like im so full and its hard to breath , as if my lungs are full of bricks, and I have only a tiny space for air. I get tired really easy.. but I work from home.. on the computer. I don t drink or smoke . ... I am just tired of being dizzy all the time.. I don t feel myself at all and havent been for 8 moths. I do, however have alot of stress in my life as well. any help ?

HI.
I AM DR. KAVITHA. I WOULD LIKE TO HELP.
THE WAY TO EXCLUDE ANY MAJOR UNDERLYING MEDICAL PROBLEM IS TO VISIT YOUR FAMILY PHYSICIAN WHO CAN GIVE YOU A PROPER PHYSICAL EXAMINATION AND RUN A FEW BASIC TESTS TO EXCLUDE ANEMIA,DIABETES ETC. A CARDIOLOGICAL EVALUATION IS ALSO NECESSARY IN YOUR CASE.
IF YOUR JOB IS A SEDENTARY TYPE YOU MUST ALSO RULE OUT CERVICAL SPONDYLITIS . A LITTLE MORE EXERCISE CAN ALSO HELP BOOST YOUR "HAPPY HORMONES" AND HELP YOU FEEL BETTER.
A VISIT TO A QUALIFIED CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST CAN HELP YOU DEAL WITH YOUR PANIC ATTACKS AND STRESSORS.
SINCE IT HAS BEEN 8 MONTHS IT IS NOT ADVISABLE TO IGNORE YOUR SYMPTOMS ANYMORE. TAKE CARE BYE
