Breathing Difficulty While Laying Down Can Be Due To Panic Attacks?
I have a problem when I lay down I can not breath so good, I also have had panic attacks before, this might be the reason. This does not happen when I go to work or doing something where I am not thinking about it, only when I lay down to go to sleep.
