Hyperventilation

Do I need to go a see a doc? I experienced it for the first time yesterday and it happened twice or thrice actually through out the day when I got really stressed. Hasn’t happened today yet.
I have been reading up on it and its nothing serious and you can control so is it worth seeing a doc and incurring medical bills when thats the last thing I need right now?

It happens to everyone at some point. Rush of emotions, negative or positive. Wish you all the best.

Re: Hyperventilation

Sounds like a panic attack to me. Stress that leads to hypervenitaliation is likely a panic attack.

What's your blood pressure like?
They can't do anything for panic attacks, other than prescribe benzodiazepines (ativan, xanax, etc). Breathe into a paper bag next time. I know it's really scary when it happens, but just try to calm yourself down and you'll be fine.

I agree.It may be a panic attack.See a doctor just to be on thesafe side.Have you thought of counselling since you are going through a stressfull time, it may help you a lot:)
