A member asked:

I am always worried & scared about disease? looking it up on internet? i get fast heart beat, feel panicked & ready to flee. is it due to bp or heart

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Panic attack symptom: Suddenly your heart begins to pound & you hyperventilate, sweat, and tremble. You fear you are having a heart attack, going crazy, or even dying. Then, 10 minutes or so later, it's gone. Panic attacks are fairly common however cause of most attacks is not clear. Treatments include : medicine, deep breathing, psychotherapy, meditation & relaxation. Please arrange a physician evaluation right away
