Hmmm, I don't know for sure. My mother always complained about a racing, pounding heart when she had panic attacks. I think the body releases lots of adrenaline in a fight-flight response, but since you are not doing anything but sitting there, you can feel your heart pound.
* Exercise * Anxiety, stress, fear * Fever * Caffeine, nicotine, cocaine, diet pills * Overactive thyroid * Anemia * Hyperventilation * Low levels of oxygen in your blood * Medications such as thyroid pills, asthma drugs, beta blockers for high blood pressure or heart disease, or anti-arrhythmics (medications to treat an irregular heart rhythm can sometimes cause a different irregular rhythm) * Mitral valve prolapse -- the valve that separates the left upper chamber (atrium) from the left lower chamber (ventricle) of the heart does not close properly * Heart disease

The prescribed medication for panic attacks should not work on her like that; it should be the opposite. Best is she's consulting her doctor again, she might needs a different dosage or she really suffers from depression and needs other medication. Please she needs to get it checked out.
But I just want to point another thing out: Medication is not the key, not the healing answer for panic attacks. She also is in need of psychological counceling.
Lastly people - who are suffering from panic attacks - can actually only get over them if they are not anymore afraid of having one. Still trying to figure this piece out..... Posts: 30135 | From: The owner of this website killed ES....... | Registered: Feb 2004

- Write a will if you don't have one already. - Find ways to repent. - Become a minimalist giving away all your belongings to loved ones so that maybe they would speak well of you. - Buy a tomb or start preparations by having someone move the bodies in the bit to make room. - Record all your thoughts and feelings and let everyone around you know their whereabouts so that they can use that later one to reflect upon the latest moments. And last but not least, have fun. You're embarking on a remarkable journey from which you won't return and will never see anyone around here anymore. And yeah, buy some light clothing for the journey into the heat Posts: 743 | Registered: Oct 2006

Panic attacks are a form of temporary pyschosis, not a long term malady.
Its a wake up call from your body telling you to get serious about a current and temporary threat to her mental health.
if it was a long term pyschosis then it would be depression, not anxiety. Anxiety is a precursor to depression.

Prognosis for Panic disorder: fact, proper treatment reduces or completely prevents panic attacks in 70 to 90 percent of people. Many people feel substantial relief in just weeks or months. (Source: excerpt from Getting Treatment for Panic Disorder: NIMH)
Prognosis of Panic disorder discussion: Repeated episodes of fear—commonly called panic attacks—that are typical of panic disorder can be devastating. The panic attacks, or avoidance of them, can completely take control of your life.
* Without treatment, you may continue to have panic attacks for years. The disorder can seriously interfere with your relationships with family, friends, and co-workers.
* Without treatment, your life may become severely restricted. For example, you may start to avoid certain situations where you fear you will experience a panic attack—even normal, everyday activities, such as grocery shopping or driving. In extreme cases, people with untreated panic disorder grow afraid to leave the house, a condition known as agoraphobia.
* Without treatment, you may find it difficult to be productive at work. Your symptoms may keep you from getting to your job or staying there once you arrive. You may turn down promotions or job assignments that you believe will make you more likely to have panic attacks. Some people with panic disorder even quit their jobs. Many can keep working but otherwise rarely leave home.
* Without treatment, you may become severely depressed. You may try unsuccessfully to numb the symptoms of panic disorder or depression with alcohol or other drugs. You may even begin to have thoughts about suicide. (Source: excerpt from Getting Treatment for Panic Disorder: NIMH)
Appropriate treatment by an experienced professional can reduce or prevent panic attacks in 70% to 90% of people with panic disorder. Most patients show significant progress after a few weeks of therapy. Relapses may occur, but they can often be effectively treated just like the initial episode. (Source: excerpt from Facts about Panic Disorder: NIMH)
Treatment can bring significant relief to 70 to 90 percent of people with panic disorder, and early treatment can help keep the disease from progressing to the later stages where agoraphobia develops. (Source: excerpt from Understanding Panic Disorder: NIMH)
Recurrence of Panic disorder discussion: Panic disorder is often a chronic, relapsing illness. For many people, it gets better at some times and worse at others. If a person gets treatment and appears to have largely overcome the problem, it can still worsen later for no apparent reason. These recurrences should not cause a person to despair or consider himself or herself a "treatment failure." Recurrences can be treated effectively, just like an initial episode.
In fact, the skills that a person learns in dealing with the initial episode can be helpful in coping with any setbacks. Many people who have overcome panic disorder once or a few times find that, although they still have an occasional panic attack, they are now much better able to deal with the problem. Even though it is not fully cured, it no longer dominates their lives, or the lives of those around them.
