A member asked:
I was having heavy breathing (just like sobbing) for no known reason. never ever experienced before. hubby's comfort increased it. why?

Breathing: Sometimes heavy or frequent breathing can occur when you are upset and is known as hyperventilation. It goes completely away but can reoccur. See your doctor for any breathing concerns. All the best. With hyperventilation you often experience tingling and numbness in your extremities and breathing into a bag may help.
