Everyone, thanks for the continued sage advice on all topics. Hubby dx in 2013; now wheelchair/recliner bound, trilogy non-stop. Having some what I have deemed to be panic attacks. Comes on if he thinks he's not getting enough air or he gets upset about something. Neuro has prescribed Xanax, 1/2 tab, 2.5 mg 2 times per day. I don't see that has done anything. When the panic sets in, it's pretty bad and, of course, once he gets upset there is no pulling him back. (Oh, he will say lots of things; He still has his voice!).
Any other meds that you all can recommend? Also on Lexapro - 20 mg each day. We are doing some tube feedings at night, so thinking I may need something that can go into the tube - sometimes the panic hits if he has to use cough assist and hard to get him to swallow a pill after that.
