I was reading somewhere that they take blood, and check you out for other illnesses, before they actually diagnose someone…So, How(or what.) do the Doctors do, before diagnosing someone with Panic Disorder.

Thanks to anyone who answers.

    Hey everyone,
    So, I’ve been having what I think may be panic attacks recently. I’ve had them in the past, but these symptoms I’ve been having lately, are very different. For a while, I was having chest pains and At night, sometimes I get these attacks and I have difficulty breathing and this sort of wave of panic comes over me. At first, I thought I was having a heart attack, so I freaked out and the next day went to the hospital, but after they did an ECG, tested my oxygen intake and did a chest x-ray, they said everything looked not just fine, but above average. Lately, though, I’ve been feeling really spaced out, faint and a little dizzy and this symptom isn’t going away. Its been around for a couple of days now and there isn’t much that makes this sensation stop. I feel disconnected, almost dream-like to what’s around me, like I’ve just woken up. Is this a symptom of panic attacks and is it normal for this disconnectedness to go on for a few days?
    Anyone who’s experienced this or has some clues, your help is much appreciated.

    Oh, also, I have been to the Hospital about 4 times regarding this because nothing’s changed and I keep worrying that its something serious, but every time I go, different doctors do the same tests (ECG, oxygen intake) but all say basically the same thing: my heart’s fine, my lungs are fine, and they say its in my head, but these physical symptoms don’t go away…

      I get severe panic/anxiety attacks sometimes. It’s happened a lot more recently, and I’ve went to the doctors to check everything but they said it was okay. Usually I get a slight anxiety attack during school, but it’s not as bad as my severe ones. Anyone know anything I can do to relax myself while getting these? I usually start breathing really fast and somewhat lose breath, I get very hot, and my heart RACES. Anyone know anything that I can do or use to relax myself? Thanks.

      Who has had serious trouble with migraines during pregnancy and what did your doctor suggest for "home remedies" or RX medications? I have them about twice a week and seriously need help!
      I am 16 weeks with my third child.
      I am not stupid enough to take anything that is not approved by my doctor. I am simply curious about how others have dealt with the problem and the solutions their doctors have given them. If there was something I was curious about that someone suggested I would consult my doctor before use. DUH! I don’t want to hurt my child.
