And there are prescription antispasmodics that you could ask your doctor for instead of the peppermint. Feel better! There's a number of folks here with panic disorder and everyone knows it's no fun. So tons of sympathy and a {{{{{{{{{{{{BIG HUG}}}}}}}}}}}}. -------------------- Laura Keep it simple! Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
