Last night at midnight we called an ambulance for dd (16) as she was struggling to breathe, her chest was tight, she was panicking.
We were called back after 45 mins and a nurse triaged her, said she didn't think it was life threatening, and said a doctor would call later.
At 4am a doctor called. Dd had been sleeping - I was awake keeping an eye on her. Doc suggested an appointment at local OOH surgery but the Covid rate is very high there and dd was reluctant.
Today her chest is still tight and she says she feels she's not getting in as much air as usual. Wwyd?
Is this common with panic attack (muscular pain)? Could this be the first symptom of Covid? She had classic panic attack symptoms last night - tight chest, clammy hands and feet, sweating then shivering.
I think it was a panic attack but her chest is still tight today. Can anyone advise?
