Hi Marshmellow, I started having
hot flashes that would come before a panic attack.
For the panic I started taking lexapro. Since I have been on lexapro I haven't had a panic attack. I told my O.B. about it and she said that they actually had looked at lexapro to help hot flashes. When I decided to go off lexapro I started having hot flashes. So for me, somehow they are connected. Good luck! You are definitely not alone.
