2018-01-05 11:50:37
I am 19 years old and I suffer anxiety. I have panic attacks every day at leadt two times. This morning I started feeling heart palipations and lightheaded. Now I feel nauseous, dizzy, shortness of breath and chest pain. Its been getting worse over this 3 hours and it won't stop. I took a walk this morning but nothing changed. Two weeks ago I started fainting and its getting worse. I'm not overweight, exercise every day and I eat heathy but I am often under stress. What should I do?

Consult a cardiologist and get a ecg done to rule out cardiac cause. It is important to be doubly sure that you don’t have cardiac ailment before we can treat you for panic attack.
