Hi Jodz,  Is P.A.    a physical assessment?

Jodz, sorry, shows you I'm always thinking medical.

My blood pressure does spike and I'm on blood pressure

medication.  We're talking super high which I then use my

deep breathing (doesn't work as quick when in the throws

of Panic Attack) but at least it helps.  I monitor my pressure

until I see that it's coming down.   Thanks...

Hi Agora , I'm glad someone else can confirm they have the high spike . I'm on BP tablets to but when having a panic attack it goes up to 200/120 bloody scary and I feel like collapsing and passing out its just horrible . I have done lots of deep breathing and it does nothing for me .

Oh my gosh, just like me.   It's terrible.  I'm glad we are both on b/p pills to protect us and give us help in it going down.  I am always amazed in how it can go from high levels to normal.     I understand  and will support you anytime.   xx
