> > i was sitting at my pc about 6 years ago when all of a sudden i couldnt see straight my heart raced i got vertigo, started sweating profusely and had the urge to use the bathroom really bad, ended up in er, after hours they said i was having panic attacks. now 6 years later they still kind of come out of nowhere sometimes i feel them coming on most times do not, sometimes get really weak and feel like i could pass out and break out in a cold sweat. do any of you have these same symptoms? get dizzy for no reason and feel like you walk like a drunk? started klonopin a week ago, starting to feel better. but wonder how long to really kick in and at what dose seems the most useful? i take .25 in am and .25 at night. but at time still feel a breakthrough attack trying to edge in. would appreciate any and all responses.

> > thanks chemist, don't know who you are but seem ok to me, and i trust your input, i read alot of your post's, one question though do you think i will have to eventually go up in dosage for maximum effectiveness? best to you too
> chemist here... let the klonopin take hold for a week, and i suspect - predict - that you will be okay....all the best, and stay in touch, chemist
