Hello everyone, I have a question that I have been wanting to ask for a long time. Do any of you have severe anxiety or even panic attacks either caused by...
I have in the past had them, Preston. Xanax was what I would take. Usually a .5 dosage would suffice, but at times I'd have to double it. The xanax would help...
Hi Preston. In late March and early April, I had a number of anxiety attacks (in public) brought on by what was happening in my life, and the medications I...
Hey Preston - I have had a few attacks. Pain has contributed solely to 2 of them. A couple others were brought on by stress and/or depression. The stress...

Hello everyone, I have another story to tell about what happened today. If you recall, my neuro discharged me as a patient when she sent a certified letter on...
I'm glad you were able to finally get one of your meds. It's ridiculous of her to make you go to those lengths, because now you will probably have to pay an...
Beth, thanks for your reply. I've decided that I will see how it goes with my new neuro before and if I do infact file a complaint. As far as the ER bill, I...

Preston - What a nightmare! I am surprised at the ER doctor's response. When I ran out of my meds when my doctor unexpectedly had to leave town, the Urgent...
Preston - I find that stressful situations do increase - or even bring on - TN attacks. I suffer confusion, courtesy of my meds, which is frustrating and even...

Kate, Don't feel bad about venting to us, that's what we're here for! We all, at least I, can understand how frustrating it is to put on the weight from the...
