    Are you taking medicine related to Panic attack?

    If you don't have any disease, I think it'll be panic disorder. If you take medicine, you'll be okay soon.

      I'm sorry to hear that.

      Why don't you see another doctor?

      There is a word "Hospital Shopping" in Korea. It literally means going to the hospital like shopping until the disease is identified and treated.

      I don't want you to give up.

      I'm sure you'll get better.

      To do that, it may be better to go to another doctor for a medical checkup.

      I hope you get better soon.
