"When I would have what I thought was a panic attack/anxiety, my heart would race and pound, dizziness, sweat profusely, it was terrifying, in fact I was almost agoraphobic, only in that I wouldn’t leave the house alone"

All that precisely applies to me at times over the last few months, although I lost the wife a few years ago so have to soldier out on my own when it's not too overwhelming. At other times I am almost fine. Treating the symptoms with anxiolytics is not working very well.

Glad you are doing better!

It is easy for our bodies to get out of whack, especially the endocrine system. It is tricky! Also easy to allow peculiar physical problems to be passed off as emotional. Before I went to the endocrinologist, I can’t tell you how many tests my internist put me through, only to be told I was having panic attacks and see a therapist………honestly, there is nothing like an endocrinologist, they are rare and hard to find.
