7 hours no, and especially not for blood pressure that prolonged. But I have had panic attacks lasting 3-4 hr., which is why I now have low dose Seroquel to stop them. I don't think the Seroquel really stops the high anxiety but slows the reflexes enough I can calm down. Panic attacks that long are rare but have been known to happen.
