Whom Should I Consult For My Daughter Who Is Having Episodes Of Shakiness?

My 14 year old daughter has been having episodes of shakiness, lightheaded, unsteadiness and feels like she is going to pass out. She is on Sertraline for anxiety, Miralax for functional constipation and Prevacid for acid reflux. She sleeps a lot and still feels tired all the time. Not sure if I should make an appointment with the pediatrician or her child psychiatrist. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hello,

With the background history of anxiety and treatment for the same, consult a neuropsychiatrist to rule out panic or seizure episodes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
