Asking For Self, Male 28, Lahore
I was facing anxiety and panic attacks. I have controlled these problems since last month. I am almost okay. Today while i was sitting infront of my laptop i attacked by a sudden dizzy spell for 1 sec which was so fearing and i felt that i will pass out now. I have faced this problem during anxiety. At sitting position normaly working on laptop a sudden spell of dizziness come and go after 2 sec. but my heart beat fasts during this problem. After it i feel really tired and sleepy. The fear came into my mind that the blood flow or oxygen to my brain short and i will fell down due to this. why its happening? is it arrythmia? or sudden blood pressure low problem?
Get your blood sugar checked, and if possible get EEG within 72 hrs of that attack

It's most likely a panic attack. Avoid searching the internet for possible causes as It can be misleading. If you are concerned, please speak to a Psychiatrist for detailed assessment.
I hope it's helps

Well you need to get your few lab investigations done after complete psychiatric evaluation, if the problem is medical it will be dealt accordingly and if the problem is due to anxiety disorder it is there with complete cure don't worry.

You need to do some investigations like Thyroid function test, ECG and EEG to rule organic issue 1st.
If you have already been experiencing same kind of symptoms then most probably it was either panic attack or anxiety related symptoms. You have not mentioned about your physician and treatment....If you have taken treatment from a psychiatrist then your necessary laboratory tests must have been done before diagnosing you a case of Anxiety disorder. But if you have never visited a psychiatrist then you need to see one. Its his decision after understanding your illness what laboratory tests you need.
