Panic attacks?

Please can anyone tell me if what I'm having is a mild kind of panic attack, or if I'm just being a hypochondriac / wimp?

For the last few days I've had bouts of finding it hard to breathe - feels like something is around my throat, putting pressure on it from the outside.

I also have slight light-headedness at the same time and go hot.

Not sure if it is this, or anything else (am sure I'm not imagining the change in breathing though).
