I just took a klonopin. I got through the one yesterday without a klonopin but this one just seems to be escalating so I had to do something about it because I was starting to get convinced there was somehow some kind of object lodged in my throat.

Wow!
This sounds so incredibly frightening!
Some say: it's ctritical to get ahead of the attacks, by treating prior to further attacks.
My fave pdoc used to tell me the panic attacks are self-perpetuating. The more you experience, the more you will have. If this is true, it becomes very important to stop them before they start, if possible.
Are you treated for panic outside of a prn? I am hoping your pdoc helps you out by treating panic in a proactive manner, so you will not have to keep having these attacks.
