My problem is that I have been having panic attacks since I was about 13. At age 14 I was put on medication (Adderall XR 30's) for ADD. Even though the medication helped me greatly in school, the panic attacks became more frequent and more aggressive. Every day after school i would get home and start to feel my fingers tingle, my face go numb, get really dizzy, then have problems breathing. Id have to lay down and just try to fall asleep to get rid of all of it. At the time I thought it was panic attacks that I was having but was not yet diagnosed. After I had 3 or 4 really bad panic attacks that literally left me feeling like my body was shutting off and i was going to die. I was sent to a neurologist. They did some sort of test, I still have no idea what it was called but they put the pads on my head and had me close my eyes while they put a strobe light in front of my face. then had me take deep breaths. Apparently, everything came out normal. They didn't recommend any other treatment or tests, just sent me on my way. My family doctor prescribed xanax to me to take when i felt a panic attack coming on.. Well, that was fine for a little while. after I realized that I controlled my panic attacks i was having less. But now, I can't control them and I have them while i am at work, I work as a chiropractors assistant and I don't believe Xanax and work mix well! Anyways, do you have any suggestions or advice, or maybe know of any medications (with VERY little side effects) that could help me?! thank you very much for your time and help.
