Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Are you a heart patient, having high bp, cholesterol, smoking, chest pain, diabetes, or stress? Have you checked your blood pressure during the episode? This should be evaluated. Get an ECG, echo and if needed TMT done.

Also get lipid profile and sugar tested. This could be a panic attack or heart problem. We will need to rule out heart problem before labelling it as panic attack. So get the above test done and let me know if it recurs.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sagar Makode
