Hyperventilation
Hello Doctor
I'm shamili 34,
I'm suffering from Anxiety past 1 year
Now 2 days back...my anxiety panic attack came as hyperventilation
Previous i use to have high heart rate & palpitations
I went to pulmonologist , but he said sometimes due to stress anxiety it will come
If again it is repeated do chest xray pa view & bcoz my saturation is dropping when hyperventilation is happening around (91 to 95 )
What would be treatment for it to solve ?
Can we do breathing excercise to control it....?
Do i need to consult psychologist for my anxiety & panic attack
Thank you

Hi Shamili.. if all other medical reasons for anxiety have been ruled out and u used anxiolytics but still your symptoms haven’t improved, it indicates that either the medicines have not been tailored to your needs or you did not take the medications as advised.
These attacks can impact daily life a lot
Hence it is advisable to consult a psychiatrist for other examinations and answer their questions appropriately.
Next Steps
You can connect for further assistance and breathing exercise tutorials.. i would be happy to help
