Hyperthyroidism!: Hyperthyroidism is likely culprit much less likely is a cause due to sugar- so unless hypoglycemic at onset of paniuc attack ( <70), focus with your md o treating the overactive thyroid state- initially with beta blocker med, and control of production of thyroid hormone. Lastly anxiety/ depression can be independent of both issues, and would need to be addressed if not better
