Question: I need to find help for my severe panic attacks with vomiting. I went to Dr Amen's Clinic and was treated for this a few years ago and it was all under control. Now it is getting very bad again started on a plane on the 1st on our way to vacation, ruined a lot of my vacation. I am congested in my head from a bad cold and that makes it hard to breathe through my nose, which is what seems to be triggering them now. Every few minutes and nights that I go into it this way get very bad. I have 1 mg lorazapam and had to take 3 to just get to the edge and they still come frequently, just not as strong and long. I had an attack last 4 days constant one time before my trip to the Amen clinic, with vomiting every few minutes and no sleep. I really do not want to go through that again. How many hours is the lorazapam supposed to last and what is my maximum dosage. I am a 54 year old female, 115# now. I have lost 6 pounds since the plane trip. I also am taking musinex dm 12 hour and otc nasal spray diluted in half with saline solution. I have phenegren and reglan that I can take too for my stomache if I know the proper dosage with the other medications.

I had tried several different antidepressants and have not found one that does not make me nervous and sick to my stomach. I need to know how to find a good doctor in my area, since mine retired. I was doing well when she did, and had been for quite a while. So I never got a referral. She thought I was doing well, as I was for quite some time.
