Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi Dear,
At the age of 68 panic attack is unusual. so first of all do all the routing blood investigation and ECG and also consult physician to rule out any heart pathology.
if reports comes normal then one can say you might have panic attack.
since when you have a panic attack?
which are the symptoms you experienced?

Consult local psychiatrist.
Thank you
