Is Anxiety Attack Related With Headache,numbness Of Legs And Hand With Dizziness?

i think i had my first panic attack last night. i had a severe headache at first and i was breathing in deeply then i started feeling very weak, my hands and legs went numb or 'dead'. my hands were clenched that much i made my hand bleed slightly. plus my right leg was shaking and my left leg was in pain whenever i walk on it. im still struggling to walk now.i also had tingling in my face and was very dizzy and even collapsed in the hospital. doctors said it was nothing, i was fine and so let me go home however paramedics said it looked like a severe anxiety attack. do you think it was?
