I have a history of anxiety, first off, but have managed well for years. I know its signs and symptoms and generally do not get freaked out by a panic attack anymore.. rather riding it out. I am also type 2 diabetic well managed. A1c @5.9 and diagnosed with fibromyalgia which i am learning to manage with out prescription drugs). I do take a half or whole ativan (1mg) as needed when my physical stress reaction causes my neck and jaw to stiffen up (about 2-3 times a month). The fibromyalgia causes my body to react to stress even when my mind is perfectly calm). That being said, the reason I write is, I am experiencing some breathing issues and indigestion. It seems I am breathing normally in rhythm (but perhaps a bit shallow). I am not feeling as though i am recieving adequate oxygen to my lungs, which causes me to have to take a very large slow deliberate inhale every 5-10 minutes. It has come and gone for the last few weeks (i chalked it up anxiety (very similar) and pushed through without ativan) but has now become persistant and bothersome within the last three days. I am finding I can t sleep or when I do i wake startled and taking a large breath. I also have terrible indigestion. Especially after a meal (even a small one). I can be very hungry yet still feel bloated and a little acid reflux in my esophagus. I am eating smaller, bland meals, and sipping from a glass rathe rthan a straw or bottle. My heart rate is normal but on the high side of around 200bpm (consistent with my lack of aerobic activity in my lifestyle). I did take a (1mg) ativan thinking that perhaps i was exaserbating my indigestion with the irratic breathing today. I do feel less anxious but the breathing issue and the indigestion persist. I was going to ride it out a few more days but my friend and husband both are concerned and have now made me concerned enough to write. Should i head to urgent care?
