I thought that I had this under control but feel even now so panicky  I cannot breathe. Is there someway that will convicnce me its ok no matter what happens? Please help if you can .Any advice would help me,thanks

Answer: The first answer is really good, but you might also want to figure out what it is that frightens you.  It's probably something you're making up (like, "It's brain cancer and I'm going to die!!!!") and if you recognize that's what's scaring you, you can remind yourself that that's really not what's going on, and is no reason to be scared.
