Could Tingling Sensation And Numbness In Body While Suffering From Panic Attacks Be Due To Mount Syndrome?

I have mount syndrome. After a stress test my body turned tingling- numb- froze and then the jerking. I think its because of l airways damage to a breathing tube back in Dec17. Now my doctor thinks I had a panic attack and wants to put me on zolaft. I have been on steroids- breathing inhibitor- was in the hospital for 12 hours for oxegon because I can t breathe after the dec 17 surgery on my nose. Mount syndrome is brought on by stress. My chest still hurts but my voice is finally coming back. is zolaft the right meds for me? I have been on Klonopin for 30 years and my doctor wnts me to take both? I am 62 female

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

zoloft consists of sertraline and it has good effect on anxiety symptoms. There is nothing harm in taking that. You can start with the basic minimum dose of 50mg and gradually increase it according to the symptoms. With that, you can also take klonopin, there is no major drug interaction between two drugs.

Thanks
