Wow~I'm so sorry you had to go through that!!!

>>>>For everyone that has read this whole thing - here is my question. Is it possible that Lexapro could have actually helped bring on these panic attacks?

I take Lexapro and I have never had a 'panic attack' on it. You may have had a reaction OR it was a real panick attack. Your post indictaes that you were given Klonopin and that you have PA's.

>>>>Also, I accidently forgot to bring the Klonopin wafers with me on that trip but do you think it would have helped?

I think since the 'panic attack' came on so fast and so quick AND you felt those feelings again, the Klonopin may have helped, but Ativan acts faster. Klonopin has a longer half life from what I know, but it could have worked as well as the Ativan did for you. I did have a panic attack once and immediately took a Klonopin and it helped.
I'm glad you felt better after taking the Ativan.
If you want, keep us posted, I'm interested if you change to Ativan or continue the Klonopin.
Hang in there and good luck!
Kristen
