If you're an asthmatic, how can you tell the difference between an asthma attack and a panic attack?
Jan 17, 2007 by Jewel | Posted in Respiratory Diseases
I've had asthma for approximately 14 years but it's gradually getting worse as I get older and my attacks are more frequent. I've been put on additional preventative medicine but have always wondered about the difference between asthma and anxiety/panic attacks. I'm not sure if I experience the latter because my asthma does scare me on occasion. Is it normal to get scared during an attack? How can you tell if it's just a little fear or full blown anxiety?
Things I have been experiencing lately are: wheezy cough, chest soreness and aches, breathlessness, and feeling as if weights are sitting on my chest.Sometimes I feel Achey and weak everywhere. Sometimes I get frustrated when my asthma is out of control because it is difficult to breathe, but I do not hyperventilate or experience a pounding heart. I have difficulty getting a breath and I get really Achey, especially after I take my rescue inhaler.
What am I live and it is typical for an asthma attack or a panic attack?
I think you are having asthma attacks. I have asthma and anxiety and I do not know .. I guess I just "know" the difference when it happens. An asthma attack is like .. Whatever you do, you can breathe in or out without feeling like someone choking the life out of you until you puff your inhaler. An anxiety attack is over ... Well .. I can feel it coming on. My body began to tremble a bit, my mouth dries out, and I hyperventilate. When it comes to the actual breathing, I can better control my breathing during an anxiety attack as opposed to an asthma attack.
This is probably one of the questions the best I've read so far. You should ask a doctor about it though. These are just my experiences.

What is the difference between an incursion of asthma and to have?
What is the difference?
Sometimes my brother will be lyk "oh well i have asthma face now"
and other times he would say something lyk "I had a grasp asthma.
I differentiates asthma attacks are when you can not breathe, but asthma isn't having the same inanimate object? And if having an asthma termination means suddenly they cannot come to the next sound? something must trigger it?
And if you sleep and you wake up and abuse of asthma, which has caused this?
Missed by a lot of questions, 10 points at the most desirable response. First off. I have had asthma since I was born. In some areas, it is bad. Many simple things that trigger asthma are (but are not reduced to) mess (I lived a miserable air device so that gave me a lot of disease), pollen, if you have any Allergy zoological can the trigger, Smoke (finally), and the change of seasons (it might be just for me =(.). also having a strike to asthma is not always serious. Although it should be treated when it can vary from reasonable a minimize shortness of hint to where you can hardly respire to not being clever to whisper at all. Everyone with Asthma should have a sturdy enough Inhaler accessible incase of a Mug since they can add up to randomly. I recognize this since I’ve had them recently. For awhile I was having a inadequate shortness of murmur and I shrugged it off then 3 months later as I was watching a talking picture I mow down asleep. I woke up miserly the end only being gifted to exhale. I had to ferment to the asylum to get a inhaler.After the wisdom of this erratum I always carry around. Asthma attacks would no doubt you wake up if you sleep and as I said, they may be by chance or there may have been informants in your welcome like smoke, hair, etc. so something is still failing to call to support this issue. It is entirely accidental. Asthma has always existed, and yes people have died before having a treatment that is available. Currently, there are inhalers, nebulizers, portable nebulizers and for the treatment that I know.Asthma is not curable and can be developed in the soul. Not everyone develops and it is rare to see someone develop. I trust that this answers most of your questions and if they do not tell and I'll pillar additional info. asthma. This is something serious, but it can be controlled if you're ready. Craving it helps ^ ^....
