Hiya I've just joined here and I'm after some advice since January I have had constant dizziness, feeling like I am going to faint.

I get headaches, my breathing goes funny sometimes. It's always worse when I am out shopping especially when I go to the queue - I feel awful!!

Is this normal?! I'm on 10mg propranolol 4x a day. I am convinced I have had all different types of Illnesses my current one is that I have a brain tumour!!

I've had a full blood count which came back clear.

It's wrecking my life I can't just go out like I used to be able to.

Thanks x

I don't take prescribed medication for my anxiety, but yes, dizziness, feeling like fainting and breathing funny are all symptoms of a panic attack, they're not dangerous and nothing is going to hurt you :D you're fine! I promise!
However i suggest you talk to your Doctor about the medication you're on if you think they're not doing anything for your panic :(
