What do you think is happening when my gf finds it hard to breathe and her fist closes anf her arms stiffens?

Please help me im a bit worried.. that happened last day.. she said that she finds it difficult to breathe and her fist was closed and she cant move her arms.. we are running to alot of troubles lately.. is that a result from stress? shes far away fro me now.. she said the doctor said dont think of alot of things.. this is the first time i heard that this happened to her though there are several times that she says to me that she finds it difficult to breathe when shes crying about problems.. but that was the first time that she cant move her arms.. thanks..
Answer:
I would like to guess that she is having major panic attacks. She should go to the doctor right away for help. Remind her to deep breathe, fully in, fully out to try to get out of that state when they are happening. She may need to go on an anti anxiety med temporarily to get her nervous system back under control.
Sounds like she could be having seizures. If her doctor thinks she's fine, she should change doctors or at least get a second opinion. With regard to having trouble breathing when she's crying, that sounds like a "panic attack". But the arms not moving, fist clenched description that you gave sounds like it could be a seizure.
she could have asthma
Weight problem, panic attack, asthma starting to develop. All possibilities.
I t sound like one of 2 things to me...either asthma or a panic disorder. She really should seek a second opinion if she is not getting answers from her doc. Both are very manageable once diagnosed and properly treated.
