    Talk to a medical professional stat.  If your current OB won't listen find someone else.  I can't imagine an OB not taking what you are saying serious if you are telling them this.

    If your OB isn't taking you seriously, find a different doctor.

    Talk to a Psychiatrist ASAP.

    Is it a mental health issue?

    Yes it can be. Panic attacks can/may be symptoms of an anxiety disorder. Which is why it's important to get proper help & treatment.

    Have you ever had a panic attack? Because the question you have asked maybe suggests you haven't. Panic attacks can often mimic symptoms of a heart attack. They are not nice to have and they can make you think and feel you are going to die. Some symptoms may include-: Shortness of breath or hyperventilation Heart palpitations or a racing heart Chest pain or discomfort Trembling or shaking Choking feeling Feeling unreal or detached from your surroundings Sweating Nausea or upset stomach Feeling dizzy, light-headed, or faint Numbness or tingling sensations Hot or cold flashes. I can tell you know from experience, that when I had one I honestly thought I was having a heart attack. It's scary & the more you panic the longer the attack lasts. OP you really do need to speak to someone about this especially if it's happening often.
    Right on. I had one put me in the ER.

    OK. You've quite obviously never had a panic attack and didn't bother to read the response given by hellsangel22. Maybe you'll read this one. When you're in the midst of a panic attack, you just get this overwhelming feeling, let's call it...oh, panic. You don't know why you're panicking. You don't know how to stop it. You just know that shit is bad and you're feeling like you're going to die. I sincerely hope you never have to suffer one because they're embarrassing and exhausting. I've ended up in the ER because of a panic attack. What caused it? No clue. Why did I think I was going to die? PANIC.

    +1 for ending up in the ER for panic attacks as well. Actually, I spent over a week back and forth going to the ER for numerous panic attacks- that led to me not sleeping and having to be hospitalized for it.

    Panic attacks can be serious, and they are caused by mental health issues @djdawn29a
