Panic Attacks: As long as you are otherwise health as determined by your doctor, it is not dangerous to have several panic attacks in a day. It is extremely difficult and requires treatment from a mental health professional to deal w/them. Please see a clinical psychologist or other clinician who specializes in panic attacks. See www.relaxationresponse.org for some self-help too. You can do it.Peeace&health.

It can be...: Signicant mental health trouble can increase risks of cardiovascular diseases in the long run. Panic attacks can be troublesome especially occurring in unsafe places such as on the road and in industrial/mechanical/construction work environments etc... Frequent occurrences certainly can adversely affect your quality of daily life and relationships, so I would recommend seeing your doc.. Good luck!

Feels, but not: In a healthy individual, panic attacks are not dangerous, although they feel that way. A Harvard study(2007), found a link between panic attacks and heart risk in postmenopausal women. This link has not been clarified, but a recent Australian study (2015), suggested that, in some people, the symptoms of panic attacks might represent a musdiagnised heart condition, but again, highly unlikely.
