I'm feeling really suffocated and it's pretty uncomfortable when I breathe. It seems to take quite a bit of effort. I'm also dealing with anxiety and have had anxiety attacks quite a few times. Could these breathing issues be related to my anxiety, or do you think it might be something else? What should I do next?

I'm feeling really worried because I've had a fever for the past two days, and now I'm okay, but I'm having a lot of trouble breathing, and my cough is pretty bad. I was taking zentocol and paracetamol as my doctor suggested, but just a while ago, I started getting really dizzy and my chest is making a Gur Gur sound.
