| Re: Confused
I have suffered with panic and anxiety for 22 years
9 years ago had 24hr tape and stress ECG and all normal
Suffered 2 major panic attacks in the last 6 weeks both diagnosed by paramedics
First one
Breathless, chest pain in centre of chest, dried up thirst in throught as if my throat was closing and dizziness
12 pad ECG and all obs by paramedics normal and they said panic attack.. Was on the motorway at he time and carried on the 300 miles home ...worst day of my life
2nd attack again driving, pain in head and confusion followed by pulsing head but no palpitations but within minutes say 3 or 4 an exhausted heart breath as if I'd ran a marathon, I was sat down driving. Paramedics didn't do ECG but all obs were normal and they again said panic attack. Days later I went to my gp as still wasn't feeling at all well and he reluctantly sent me for stress ECG yesterday, ended up with ECG, X-ray and stress ECG
Just had a call from gp as he's had results and he says on my recovering resting beats on my ECG I had abnormal waves. They,ve also put me on a beta blocker and aspirin
GP has said it still could be stress and panic attacks ?
My dad died at 35 of heart attacks
Very anxious and worried
