What it sounds like to me, you REALLY need to see a doctor if you're having trouble breathing. Like, immediately. Try deep breathing, and relaxing. That helps calming your nerves.

Yeah, Thomas beat me to this one, but luckily for you, he's usually correct!. Sounds like some kind of panic disorder, which actually sounds and feels much worse than it is. My Dad the Shrink says that it is one of those easily treated things with meds, so the sooner you get to a doctor the sooner this will end!

Until then, just hang in there, try to realize that it's temporary, that nothing terrible will happen to you when you're in panic, get some support, do something distracting. And I've heard that breathing into a paper bag when you're panicking helps, too.

But get to a doc.
