Hi all
I had my first attack about 4 years ago when I was 58. After medical tests no physical problems were found. After a few weeks the attacks stopped.
On Saturday this week I felt unwell with pumping heart and high blood pressure.
Sunday was a little better and I slept well last night.
This morning at work I felt unwell again, hot sweaty, with racing heart. Every thing around me felt distant and unreal and then bang the panic attack started. I managed to control it with my breathing and it has now subsided.
Clearly they can occur at any time. Because of the experience 4 years ago this time I recognized the symptoms so I guess ready for it. None the less still damn uncomfortable.
Cheers Ed :yesyes:
