I’m 33.5 weeks and I think I had a panic attack this evening. I had pre-eclampsia with my son at 35 wks and had to be induced; and in this pregnancy I have gestational diabetes. So, some worry present but all my numbers (sugar and pressures) right now are “perfect” and I just had a glowing scan/doc appt yesterday. Today was a normal work day and we had a sweet family dinner sitting outside. Went upstairs to check blood sugar and number was fine/normal. Then I noticed some very slight swelling in my feet and that’s when things started going tits up - started feeling a feeling of deep dread, shaky, nauseated. Took my BP and it had gone up to 136/90 (normally under 120/80). Heart pounding. Tried walking around the block but felt this awful shaky sense of doom (hard to describe) so turned back. Called medical advice line and eventually got nurse who also paged my doc. I was getting ready for hospital at this point but they went through all the pre-e symptoms and said theyre not concerned. I could feel the shaking stopping while on the line and my blood going around my body more normally again. BP dropped down to normal. Got hugs from husband, big bottle of iced water, feet up, comedy TV show, all seems ok. The whole thing lasted less than an hour but I was certain I was seriously ill. It was real. Think this was panic attack?? Anyone else experience same? I have to say I don’t have a history of anxiety and really it was a normal day, so i’m really shaken by it and having trouble making sense of it. The feelings felt exactly like the pre-eclampsia had felt before. Anyone else had similar ?
