It starts with a very FAST feeling of dizziness - kind of the way you feel if you were bending over then stood up very fast. That's how I know its "coming on"... the dizzy/wonky feeling grows and grows,....then comes a tightness in the chest and a sensation of pure, unadulterated FEAR. I mean pure terror. This sensation lasts a minute or two, then passes. Then I feel like I want to cry. After about 10 minutes, everything's normal again except I feel a bit "off" for the next 30 mins or so.

Sounds just like the panic attacks I used to have. I would also feel pain and pressure in my chest. I thought I was having a heart attack. I was hospitalized for heart problems twice, but they couldn't find anything wrong with my heart.
My doctor put me on a mild tranquilizer that I take only at night and since then I haven't had very many.
I would tell me doctor about this in case it is something more serious, and I would also check my bg's when this is going on. A few weeks ago I felt dizzy and panicked and was crying and my bg's were low for me.
