Is Difficulty In Breathing A Symptom Of Anxiety?

I recently moved from Wisconsin to California and after about a month into the move i felt as if I was having a hard time breathing. It s all I think about now, and for what ever reason I fear I have a blood clot in my lungs or something. I know this sounds very strange but I feel I am working myself up a lot. Am I suffering from anxiety?

Hi,

Yes, you might be having over worry or anxiety but it can only be labelled once you get through the basic investigations like chest x-ray, blood counts, ECG and 2 D echo.
I would also like to know the details like are there any stressors, how is your sleep, your diet pattern and thought process.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
