We wouldn't go to all of this trouble to investigate and prescribe unless we had confidence in medications. Work through your hesitation and commit to taking a medication for your panic.

Maybe: The risk with Aspirin with your history of successful use in the past is how the product is formulated. Aspirin needs to dissolve in the stomach quickly like bufferin , or not dissolve until it reaches the small intestine- enteric coated.Take Aspirin with full glass of water while standing or seated, never while laying down. Taking with food or antacid can reduce risk of stomach irritation.
