Anxiety.: Panic attacks can sometimes make one feel as if they are dying. It is good that your tests are returning normal. Anxiety and panic conditions can be treated. I recommend that you schedule an evaluation with a pyschiatrist to get help with your symptoms. Take care.

Need psychotherapy: Psychotherapy with a professional who knows cognitive behavioral therapy may help you a lot with your health anxiety. Also if you've been working only with your primary care physician on your medications, perhaps adding a psychiatrist to your healthcare team will help. S/he may be able to offer useful suggestions. I'm glad for you that your diagnostic studies are coming out normal.
