Hi I scratched my throat 3 weeks ago and I panicked even though the scratch had healed and doctor said throat is okay,the muscle in my throat began tightening up and caused pain now every time I have just a feeling in my throat I have an overwhelming bout of fear have I learnt this behaviour.Oh yes also my panic has extended to everything around me and I am in a constant state of fear trembling legs feel like lead.The pain in my throat is the main anxiety,i sometimes have this fearful thought that I am unable to cope with the pain in my throat this causes a very intense fear.regards Martin
