I have high BP and some mild anxiety. Was on Propranolol for a while and stopped after I quit drinking thinking that getting sober solved my high BP.
Recently I thought I was having a heart attack, out of nowhere: chest pain, tachycardia, high BP, lightheaded, nausea, the works. Went to ER who determined I was having a panic attack. My PCP is booked months out so his NP got me started on metoprolol.

My question is: would it be unreasonable to ask him for a handful of valium/ativan/whatever when I see him next? I don't want to come off as a drug seeker and I've only had ~3 legitimate panic attacks over the last 10 years including this one. I see no need for a ton of benzos but I would like to have something on hand to avoid the unpleasantness of another 4hr ER visit if this happens again.
