I've had a fairly stressful and emotional week (actually a rather anxious 3 months).
About 20 mins ago, I was sat on the sofa watching "Britain's favourite Sweets" with DH and dcs. Suddenly I started to feel really uncomfortable. I felt like lower torso was tightening and painful. Like a band around my middle. I felt pain in my back. The most severe pain I felt was in my lungs - sharp deep pains. I excused myself and went to lie down upstairs. That didn't help, so I leant over the bed and breathed deeply. After a few minutes everything eased. Now I feel fine.
Wtf? Could this have been a panic attack?
My dd is under a specialist right now for (what he believes) are panic attacks, but hers are more visual.
