I've had this sensation before, like a fluttering near my heart and in the chest. It's coming back and I've been feeling so much anxiety that I'm wearing my body out to a point of near-collapse. Is this any prelude to panic attacks? I asked doctors about it last time but they ignored my questions.

I have the same thing. It's a prelude to a panic attack. Just take deep slow breaths and try to relax.I have passed out from a panic attack but it's from hyperventilating.How often does this happen?

I'm guessing about three times a day for the past couple days. I checked my heart rate after it happened last and I was over 90 bpm, laid down, tried to breathe and went down to around 70 eventually.

I've been having this a lot more since I started cleansing my body. I thought I had given myself heart damage from losing too much weight at once. I started seeing a Network Spinal Analysis Chiropractor and he pointed out that I was a shallow breather. Now I am learning Somatic Respiratory Integration so I can take deeper breaths. Try to find peace.

I've always had asthma and I'm very sensitive to smell (possibly a bit of a germophobe as well, due to the asthma I'm sure), so it's possible I'm not allowing myself to breathe right. I also get real nervous and tense when around people and I don't allow myself to relax.

Sensitivity to odors could be allergies and/or candida. Changes in the diet can help. Check out the body ecology diet.
