when I get the physical feelings from the anxiety, it's like my body is fighting against me and if I move around too much it just gets worse. I have to lay or sit down or my panic gets real bad. The meds I am taking are Inderal LA to keep my heart rate down and that seem to be ok but I still get that flutter feeling it just doesn't feel like it's going to jump out of my chest. Dr gave me Xanax to keep the anxiety in check but I just don't want to take it since it's so addicting. I just don't know what I am going to do until I see the dr. Thanks for the advice Cate, it's not lame.

lucky...I don't know how you deal with the anxiety without taking anything, I know sooner or later it will pass, but one night it literally lasted for 7 hours and then my hubby got nervous about it and took me to the hospital. They did an EKG and gave me a Xanax and about an hour later I felt some better. Then they sent me on my way.
