Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms seem to be related to a panic attack.

A seizure can not be excluded either.

For this reason, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and some tests:

- complete blood count
- thyroid hormone levels
- blood electrolytes
- fasting glucose
- a brain EEG.

If all the above tests result normal, you should consider anxiety as the main cause of your complaints.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
