Suggest Treatment For Anxiety And Hormonal Imbalance

I ve been having anxiety symptoms For 6 yrs. My doctor says its anxiety and hormone imbalance. Yet no test show any imbalances and they will only do certain tests. I started having panic attacks back in february of this year. They are awful. Sometimes I have skipped heartbeats heart flutter heart beats hard or fast but rarely over a 100 beats a minute but it feels like its running a race. The heart palps really scare me, but the heart doctor says there is nothing wrong I'm just anxious. Can u help? Any advise also the dr says I have pmdd I'm 37 yrs old

My dear friend. It appears to me that there may be some psychological factor playing role behind your anxiety. More likely you are having generalised anxiety disorder with panic disorder. You need to check your thyroid function tests too as hyperthyroidism can cause anxiety too. Next is to visit a psychiatrist to start anti anxiety drugs like escitalopram along with benzodiazepines like clonazepam for some time.propanolol can also help. Lastly you should do some relaxation exercises too.
