A member asked:
Shortness of breath, scared feeling, tightness in chest, alway feeling like there is something wrong with me like i have cancer or ms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Panic attacks: You describe symptoms consistent with Panic Attacks, and none of this would raise my concerns for MS or cancer. Your symptoms can readily be controlled, but would check for various metabolic problems such as hyperthyroidism, and other entities. Your primary care physician can help immensely with all of this.
