Hello and welcome to XXXXXXX

Thank you for writing to us.

All the above mentioned reports are normal.

From your description it does look like you are suffering from a panic or anxiety attack. Your heart beats faster when you are anxious or panicking. This increased heart beat results in sweating and due to the increased rate of blood flow, a general sensation of heat is passed through the body. These are all associated with a panic or anxiety attack.

In my opinion the best option would be to XXXXXXX a doctor (psychiatrist) and go about counselling. Anti-anxiety medication also helps to a certain extent, but it is best to avoid them if success is achieved through counselling (cognitive behavioral therapy, exposure therapy, etc.), relaxation techniques, healthy eating habits, reduced alcohol and narcotics, regular exercise and healthy and fixed sleeping habits.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications. I would gladly help you.

Best wishes.

Hello sir.

Your thyroid profile is perfectly normal and your bilirubin (direct) is also completely normal. These are all completely normal reports.
XXXXXXX syndrome is associated with hyperbilirubinemia (i.e. an increased bilirubin). Your bilirubin level is completely normal. Thus, XXXXXXX syndrome is ruled out as well, sir. Your symptoms do not match these conditions either.

I understand you are worried, but please be assured. Anxiety or panic attacks are normal in people and also treatable. Do not think of these as bad or abnormal. I am sure you will be fine with a little care and attention from an experienced doctor.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications. I would gladly help you.

Best wishes.
