Anxiety and stress

Will anxiety cause breathing problem that result in occasion cough ? As you see I was worried about my HIV blood test result next week. I have backache and slight nausea too. Would stress and anxiety cause all these symptoms ?
Greatly appreciated for your opinions (:

Yes anxiety can cause breathing problems.  Actually it can cause pretty much all the symptoms you described.

Are you currently seeing  a psychatrist to help you with your anxiety?  If not I would suggest that you start seeing one.  The only way to overcome the anxiety is to face it and deal with it and a psychatrist could help you do that.

Good Luck.  I hope everthing works out with your test results....

Yes anxiety can cause all the feelings you are getting,the nausea is through the worry of your results and the back ache is through the tension in your body
