it's called hypoglycemic episode, followed by a panic attack. You do it to yourself. First, don't let your blood sugar get that low, second when you notice your heart racing like that, relax take some SLOW deep breaths, it will pass. A panic attack is caused by adrenaline being released by the brain, but adrenaline is a very SHORT acting hormone, 15 minutes tops, if you can learn to breathe slowly thru that few minutes, you will be fine.
