I experienced a panic attack today and the first sign I felt was pain in my right shoulder/arm. The more anxious I got – the more the pain/numbness spread into my arm/hand. Every time I stopped deep breathing, it would continue to come back. I’m about an hour past it and still feel like my arm is tired/heavy. Why does this happen?

Not an answer to the question but just adding my own observation: a side-effect of anxiety I find is that if it’s cold in the room I tolerate it far less well than if I am not anxious.
