I've been taking half of a Sertraline 25mg pill, but some of it kind of melted on the tip of my tongue. Now there's this tingling and numbness going on. Is this just going to go away on its own, or could it do any permanent damage?

I'm on anxiety meds and it's been a year now. Recently, I've started getting really bad panic attacks, and my doctor put me on ciplar la 40 and beta anxit 20 for 4 months. He said if my fear goes away and I start feeling weak, I should drop the dose to ciplar la 20. About a month into taking ciplar la 40, I started feeling weak and couldn't really walk, so I lowered the dose. But now, I don't feel that weakness anymore. The weird thing is, around medicine time, like when I take ciplar at 9 a.m., my body starts acting strange. My pulse is okay when I check it, but my head feels off. Once I take the meds, everything goes back to normal, but this happens every time I take my medicine. Is this normal? I'm really scared.

The symptoms you are describing could be related to the medication. Ciplar la 40 is a brand name for propranolol, which is a beta-blocker used to treat anxiety and panic attacks. The sensation you are feeling in your head around the time you take the medication may be a side effect of the drug. Since you mentioned feeling weak and unable to walk when you were on the higher dose of ciplar la 40, it was appropriate for you to decrease the dose as per your doctor's instructions. If you are now feeling better with the lower dose of ciplar la 20, that is a positive sign. However, if you continue to experience unusual sensations or if you are concerned about any symptoms, it is important to discuss this with your doctor. They may be able to provide further guidance or adjust your medication regimen if needed.

I'm feeling really worried because I usually get panic attacks and my cardiologist had me go through ECG, echo, TMT, and X-ray, and everything came back normal. But yesterday, I had another panic attack, went to the GP, did an ECG, and was having shortness of breath. The GP said it's just an anxiety attack, but I'm still scared something might be wrong. Could you take a look at my ECG and let me know if everything is truly okay?

I don't have access to any attached files. However, based on your description and the tests you have already undergone, it seems like your symptoms are related to anxiety attacks. To manage your anxiety symptoms, you can try taking Alprazolam (Xanax) 0.5mg as needed when you feel a panic attack coming on. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also help in reducing the frequency and intensity of your panic attacks.
