Kerry Katona thought she was "going to die" ahead of having surgery last week.
The former Atomic Kitten star is awaiting corrective surgery in January on her botched tummy tuck and will also get an eye lift at the same time. But her mental health took a turn for the worse as she suffers from health anxiety while awaiting the procedures.
The 42-year-old was forced to seek medical help as her throat swelled up and her chest felt tight. Speaking to OK!, the singer said that she "couldn't breathe" and felt like she was "going to die".

She told the publication : "I had a massive panic attack last week. It was the first one I’ve had in a while. My body has been swollen since I had surgery last year. My whole body is sore and puffy – my legs, my stomach, my face, my neck. I feel like I need popping.
"I was lying down in bed and I felt like I couldn’t breathe. My throat and chest felt really tight, it was awful. I felt like I was going to die. I’ve arranged a call with my doctor but if it gets worse I’ll go to A&E."
Recently, Kerry shared footage of her getting a new set of teeth in Turkey. In the clip, she broke down in tears.
As she became visibly upset, she said: "It makes me feel sick. I feel stupid because I get dead scared." Becoming more emotional, Kerry added: "I'm literally going to cry".
