stroke or panic attack?


Question:
for no apparent reasons, i will feel a rush coming on, followed by a weird metallic smell, and the inability to express myself . i break out in a sweat, and lasts only a minute.
it usually happens in batched every 30 minutes, for a day, then won't happen again for months.
i went to ER once, and all tests were negative.
thanks for all opinions.

Answers:
panic attacks are known to mimic a heart attack and/or stroke so if your test came back all normal then i would have to say it is panic attacks i have them and i get them so bad that i have to be hospitalized because my whole body shuts down and i cannot not function anti depressants are something that you may want to talk to your doctor about they are a great help to minimize the panic attacks but remember it takes 6 to 8 weeks for the anti depressant to build up in your system so do not give up hope hang in there and good luck to you
could be just a panic attack.....but please go to a neurologist too.
