: I've gotten panic attacks before where I start

: starts to go up my arms and sometimes it gets
: to the point that my hands have spasmed to
: that I can't even move them. I have heard
: that this is the result of too much oxygen
: (which is when you should breathe through a
: paper bag in order to calm down). My
: question is, can this tingling/spasm thing
: ever reach the chest/respiratory muscles? I
: have now have this fear of getting a panic
: attack and having the feeling go up my arms
: all the way to my chest muscles so that I
: can't breathe. Is such a thing possible?
: Maybe a silly question, I have no idea.
: Thanks.
