Has anyone ever told someone or esp. the ER or a doctor that you suffer from Panic Attacks? and then...?To me it feels like the doctors automatically put off any "symptoms" or "problems" your having off on anxiety which then it causes me more anxiety.which scares me worse.
I was just in the ER last night for an ulcer issue ,I thought I was completely calm but the doctor asked as always about medical history and as soon as I told him I have panic attacks that all of a sudden became the biggest topic ,when I went in for throwing up blood ... and it makes me so mad that ,that happens it's already bad enough to deal with but to have my panic attacks constantly wrote down as "primary diagnosis" It's like I just don't want to say anything about them anymore to see if I can be treated for the real problem I have/had .
What do you think ? any ideas for future visits with doctors,etc..?
This is NOT the first time this has happened to me btw

Your panic attacks and severe anxiety may just be causing your ulcer or ulcers. That was the case for me until I was prescribed the right anti-anxiety medication that stopped the anxiety and no more stress or attacks. Some ulcers are caused by the Helicobacter pylori bacteria. Doctors can easily find if this is the cause of your ulcer. But I would be certain it is the anxiety. You need to see a doctor and as vividly as possible describe what you experience with your anxiety attacks. Some doctors if you have not been diagnosed and are saying that you have panic attacks won't take you seriously. You have to give a doctor your symptoms so that he can make a diagnosis and then prescribe the right safe medication for you. The real problem that you do have is the anxiety, It was the issue that caused the ulcer.
