A member asked:
Can you have an anxiety attack for days or a week? my heart palpitations are not going and i have tried to be calm. i have also tried propanolol but i stopped because of the side effects.

Anxiety: You could have underlying anxiety or there could be a medical issue causing your palpitations. Medical work up can rule out underlying medical causes. But, no - an anxiety attack would not last for a week straight.
