Hyperventilation: Your symptoms are consistent with hyperventilation. Hyperventilation causes you to deplete carbon dioxide in the blood. Hyperventilation is most commonly caused by anxiety. Other causes are lung problems such as asthma or emphysema, heart problems, infection and bleeding. I suggest being seen to find out the cause.
