Panic and anxiety attacks?

Question

Does anyone know the symptoms or know if these sounds like symptoms of anxiety/panic attacks.

I keep gettin pains in my rib and the other night had a small pain in my heart but i had to grab my chest, also my heart sometimes feels like its beating faster and stronger. And i remember when i was in school which wasnt that long ago i found it really hard to swallow sometimes, and sometimes nowadays i think im gonna lose control of my bladder or something, and its just things happen like that and then i cant think straight and get really agitated and i just like concentrate on this one thing.

sorry if it doesnt make sense i cant really explain it lol but do these sound like symptoms or somethin else and what can i do to help... obv im gonna go the doctors but what will he tell me to do and what causes attacks? thnks..

Answer 1

Definitely sounds like an anxiety attack.  I am pretty sure that when you see your dr., he is going to prescribe you some meds.  Good luckk with it, because anxiety issues can make your day and life miserable.

Answer 2

Your doctor will probably do a blood test to make sure your thyroid or something else isn't causing your symptoms. He may order a heart monitor. It sounds like it could be anxiety/panic attacks, but doctors have to rule out a underlying medical problem first. For example overactive thyroid  can cause the symptoms you are describing. If he or she finds nothing medically wrong then they will lean more towards a diagnosis of anxiety.
