Thank you very much for responding, Im afraid if I go to the hospital, it will turn out to be nothing. I can breath I just feel like Im having a panic or anxiety attack and my muscles and legs are jumping really bad. even on my stomach and shoulders. everywhere.

I'm not an expert, but if you feel that you cannot breathe, you need to seek medical attention.  Red Bull contains a large amount of caffeine, which can make you anxious, jumpy, make your heart race, etc.  I'd suspect you're feeling the effects of those Red Bulls, but I'd suggest seeking medical attention just to make sure it's not more serious.
