Fortunately I have never had issues with anxiety/panic attacks. But if I did experience something like you mentioned without any knowing why I would absolutely go to the doctor.
Anybody ever had an Anxiety attack?

When you go to the Dr. don't say the word anxiety. That's a quick way to get written off and your real issue overlooked.
Great way to get prescribed with SSRIs and be a walking timebomb. I'll be totally honest here, I was shocked with how I was treated 2.5 years ago when I wound up in the hospital. Though I know myself, and I know what I would do / wouldn't do, I really should have been locked up for a few days. Nah. Just take these pills it's cool. And don't worry about that 190/120 blood pressure, 10 hours of sleep per week, and chest pain, that's just anxiety. Try not to worry. There ya go, keep working until you drop dead or snap and knock someone's teeth in.
Again, I know myself, and I have an overactive conscience. But, seeing how the hospital treats people in the position I was in, and knowing that most people are unstable, volatile, twitchy, 1-track-minded beings... Not very comforting. They're delaying fuses and letting pressure build. That's it.
It all goes back to root cause. If your house is on fire, you call the fire department. You don't call the post office to have them put your mail on hold.
