Can anyone help me?

Hey so does anyone know what it means when I have a butterfly feeling in my chest? Its been going on for about a year now and hits me a couple times a day out of no where and it makes me Sweat really bad. It even caused me to have a seizure. I went to sleep and woke up in my bathroom being surrounded by paramedics and don't remember anything from that day at all. One day it happened in the middle of a conversation with my boyfriend and he freaked out because he said I was making absolutely no sense and I started crying because when I tried to talk I was making even less sense than before. It happens multiple times a day almost every-day. Does anyone know why this is happening to me??

Hiya.i have these all the time.its nerves and mini adrenaline rushes.they are scary but yet another horrible symptom of anxiety and panic.

When they happen, try to breathe deeply through your nose and then out of your mouth.i find that helps a lot as well as distraction x

Hi TessaRae, the butterfly feeling in chest is anxiety. As far as the seizures, have you seen a neurologist? What have the doctor's told you ?

Unfortunately I have not been able to go to the hospital because I have no form of identification. But as I get those butterflies I'm my chest I have an extreme Deja Vu feeling and most of the time I can't tell the difference between a dream and reality and its happening to me over 5 times a day...

TessaRae3898, you really need to be seen by a doctor who will do proper medical workup and let you know if there is a physical issue. I am not aware of anxiety causing seizures

What did the paramedics say that night. Did they bring you to the hospital? Were any tests done? There's a lot of unknown here that a professional needs to look at.

I wish you well. Please keep us updated. xx

All I remember is going to sleep and waking up in my bathroom surrounded by paramedics. I have no clue what they said because all I remember was zoning in and out. But these feelings have been happening to me since before Christmas and they keep getting worse. Especially after the seizure. The worse time it ever happened was the day of my seizure and it hit me in the middle of a conversation with my boyfriend and it scared me because none of the words coming out of my mouth were making any sense but in my head they did and I started crying in frustration because I couldn't tell him what was wrong.

Not what you're looking for?
