Hi,

I got your chief complaint. There can be several reasons for this:
- Anxiety as you say it can cause pain in the chest, breathing difficulty and fatigue.

Other reasons can be:
- An iron deficiency which can cause the same symptoms.
- Any respiratory tract infection and heart disease.

But your history suggests your problem is most likely from anxiety. I suggest you get an appointment with a psychiatrist and also a general physician.

Maybe you need drug therapy for some time. I also suggest you take the light morning walk, engage with friends and family, avoid living alone and take fresh fruits. It will relieve you more anxiety and nutrient deficiency.

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

Regards,
Dr. Soheel Hussain Zargar,
