I have suffered with panic attacks for some years now, the first one was on a bus coming home from a hospital, it started with tingling in my hands and feet. Then my hands and feet turned inwards, and went white.
My problem at the moment is that I am getting paniced in the morning and evening, I am alright once I start moving in the morning, but, at night my stomach churns, its hard to get to sleep without taking vallium, does anyone have similiar problems, and does anyone know how to get rid of the problem, or at least control it.
I have the tingles, dizziness, racing heart and the stomach churns and growls at night some times too. I usually try and take a shower to TRY and relax a little, usually not too successful, but then a hot cup of tea, make sure its hot as u can take it, and ginger ale after that with a candy mint or 2...stomach churns gone!
Sounds like a hell of a combination...but it always works for my stomach! Give it a try...i bet u will feel better!
