panic attacks, heat sensivity and playing doctor

I jumped on the max last night because my vision became kinda of spotted and i felt like i was going to have another panic attack. then i checked my blood pressure and it was elevated.  but once on the max i realized what the problem is and there is a easy solution but not until i get purchase an A/C unit.

thinking back i remember in May 2012 i had 3 panic attacks that landed me in the ER. one time i was blacking in and in out when i was in my apartment with no a/c. then by coincidence the panic attacks stopped because, maybe, i spend time in the rec room where there is ac and my friends apt that had a/c. but in 2012 i did not realize that i was so sensitive to heat.  so the panic attacks stopped without knowing what the cause was nor would the test the va completed tell anyone this was the core issue?

so in 2013 i was working most of the time so i was in AC rooms.  but the panic attacks returned out of the blue this year but only when it warmed up in portland. so apparently i have been very sensitive to heat and this in turn has caused me dry eye and panic attacks. the dry eye returned last month too.

so i was treated for panic attacks and dry eyes when actually the culprit was my new sensitive to heat that put the dry eyes, fatigue, and panic attacks into play.  so the orange juice i thought would resolve my anxiety, the doctor rx of antidepressants would not resolve my anxiety but removing myself from the heat is the solution.

also i was treated for allergies and sinus infection. i had a flashback of when i was a child i was sick a lot. i was emotionally sick and to counter this i workout in my 20's and this seemed to resolve my sinus issues. so i really did not have a sinus infection nor allergies but the depression was so bad that i was emotionally sick. since i am working out nearly 5-6 days a week the supposed sinus infection has disappeared.

i like to learn on the fly but i was crying last night because no one talks to the doctors so they have no idea of what would cause my panic attacks. i am very upset that i have to play doctor and my doctor at the va tried her best but the real reason we are playing doctor on the fly is because no one talks to the doctors.  then i hear people on line that belittle me, literally for being an " educational tool" of the " nonconformist."  this makes me so upset and to know that i have flying bind into surgery scares me to death.
