Brief Answer:
You should take her to the ER.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.

The symptoms of panic attacks and dizziness can happen due to the birth control pill if she has started taking it recently.

The numbness of her hands and passing out can be due to electrolyte disturbance and other reasons that need a prompt evaluation. It is best to take her to an ER and get her evaluated for proper treatment.

Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow-up queries that you may have.

Wishing you good health.

Regards.
