Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Good Day
Do you get dizziness, sweaty palms, tremors and conscious of yourself when you get these attacks. It is possible you get a Thyroid hormone test, especially if you feel you have lost some weight recently. Don't worry. Try to relax and take things more cool. Do Yoga or meditation, deep breathing exercises. Also, speak to the Psychiatrist regarding to help you prevent these attacks and guard you with proper medication and behavior therapies if necessary. Keep me posted.
