hi, I need to know if it is possible for lumbar disc herniations/stenosis/degenerative disc disease can cause frequent panic attacks? I had a hemilaminectomy about 8 mnths ago on my right side, and my left side is also herniated really bad, over the these last 8 mnths i have been getting more panic attacks than usual, i have been diagnosed with a panic disorder and am on meds to help control it, but latley nothing seems to help and they keep occuring, so i was curious if disc herniations could be the cause of these more frequent attacks? please help, i am getting a little freaked out :(
