Here we go again!
HaoZi is right -- it doesn't matter about the situation at all. They can come on over something seemingly inocuous. I had one a week or so after my dad died... we were just sitting in a restaurant having dinner, and I don't even remember what I was talking about, but out of the blue I felt the room closing in on me and it felt as if I couldn't breathe and I thought I was going to DIE right then and there. I've had it happen to me in line at an airport, and riding in a motorboat (although it was husband's fault for that one, LOL!)
The key is whether they get LESS or MORE frequent over time. Hopefully, less. And if not, ask for help. But considering what you've been through, I wouldn't be suprised if you had them occasionally for a while. Anniversary dates of traumatic events can be triggers, too, so don't be suprised.
