Hi, I have had panic disorder for 20 years. I control the bad attacks with 1/2 xanax. This happens mabye once a month or so. I am also newly diagnosed with insulin resistance and take 500 mg of glucophage daily. My question is about 7 years ago all of a sudden when I decided to have a drink one evening, I drank about half of the drink and my heart started to race and I broke out into a sweat. Never did that before. I tried to drink maybe twice after that and the same thing happened, so I haven't drank since 2000. I would love to have a glass of wine at dinner or a drink when out with friends, but am afraid because of the past reaction. I by no means was a drinker, but I love the taste of wine. Just want to have maybe one drink. What could cause this to happen, and is it an allergic reaction, or was it a panic attack. By the way my heart checks out fine, so I know that isn't it, and I am not of Asian descent.
