Thank you for responding. I had my thyroid checked over the next 3 yrs after the surgeries...it was ok.
They took out a saliva gland during surgery and I would start choking a lot. It felt like a rope was constantly tightening around my neck...maybe from all the stitching...they didn't use staples. I would wake up in the night choking and had ice by my bed always to help. I think that's what caused the panic attacks to start. The first ones were at night and then started happening at any time. I never asked my drs why they thought they started.
How long did you have attacks and had you ever had them before?
