[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 267069, member: 1233"] I am so sorry he has had another attack of whatever. It is hard enough when this happens, it is even harder when you are driving!! I am glad though, that it happened on the way to the docs! You couldn't have had a better destination, could you? I am wondering if the funny "blanked out" feeling and then throwing up could be some kind of seizure. Do I understand correctly that they CANCELLED the EEG? I wasn't sure I read that correctly. I don't know about all seizures, but I know when Jessie has a longer than normal seizure she sometimes vomits afterwards. It isn't like she is sick with a virus, it just sort of happens out of nowhere. Not after a typical absence seizure, where she just isn't "there" for a few seconds, but after the longer seizures, where seh isn't there for over a minute and then she is left with a very panicky, frightened feeling. Not sure this is typical post-seizure behavior. I do know that it seems to be hard to catch this on an EEG, our neuro said he was very surprised to see it and asked to use it as an example when teaching at the medication school. It is just a thought. I am sorry he is having ANY panic attacks. They are so scary for everyone involved. I am glad they gave you xanax to help with them. It was very useful for both Jessie and I when we had panic attacks. It is also helpful if you can find a scent that is soothing for use during and right after panic attacks. jessie and I used lavendar, and we also used Celestial Seasonings Tension Tamer Tea. I opened several bags of the tea and mixed it with uncooked rice in a cloth rice bag (I make them out of the sleeves of knit shirts we no longer wear - long sleeves of course). Then we got the scent every time we heated the bag in the microwave. For the lavendar scent I mixed lavendar flowers with the rice. You can get lavendar at Wild Oats or other health food stores. Essential oils are also helpful. [/QUOTE]
