Stephenie S asked:

i have panic attacks all the time,but i calm my self down and all physical pains leave. I’m scared one of these days i will really be having a heart attack and just think it’s a panic attack. what if i don’t make it to the er fast enough.
i am only 27 and live relatively healthy. i am on 2 anti anxiety meds, which have helped tremendously, but i still worry.

I went to the er because of this they said i have panic attack disorder and prescribed me ativan? Just wondering what others side affects are from panic disorder. Thanks in advance.
