I have been plagued with mild axiety attacks almost every day as a post op.

I am almost 4 weeks post op today. The attacks are very mild but are troublesome! I suddenly feel a sence of panic or very nervous energy, feel a tingling sensation through my entire body like a wave, and I start to feel lightly nauseaous ands scared. This happens first thing in the morning some days and throughout the day. It has happened on an empty stomach and a full stomach. I have never been on medications for anxiety and I have made an appt. with my PCP to see what the deal is. Has anyone else dealt with this? If so, how? My mom says that she thinks that I was anxiety prone pre op (true) and maybe I would eat when I felt anxious. Now that I can't eat like I did, I can feel the feelings that food squelched before. Does this make any sence? If meds are the awnser, what types are out there? Thanks for reading and awnsering! Peace,Stacy Cavicchia
