Lexapro dosage for anxiety?

Hi...
I have pretty bad panic disorder with agoraphobia. I say 'bad' because I'm anxious throughout the day even at home. I've been on Paxil for 8 years and am currently battling withdrawal from that crap. PDoc put me on 10 mg of Lexapro a little over 5 weeks ago. I've noticed I am less prone to Panic Attacks (in fact I haven't had one!), but I'm still anxious throughout the day. So my question is, should I give it a little more time to kick in or increase my dosage? Or...is Lex even effective for anxiety?
I am currently down to 2.5 mg of Paxil (the end of that nighmare is almost in sight!)

Current Cocktail:
10 mg Lex
2.5 mg Pax
.25mg x 3 Xanax

Thanks. ;)
