I had to come home from work today because I threw up. I'm not ill, I just had a fairly bad panic attack. Does anyone else experience anything similar?

Yes, I do. Though I don't throw up (thankfully), I do get many other physical symptoms like severe oxygen deprivation, leading to a ton of other things. I hope you feel better soon :)

I get panic attacks, but I have only thrown up on few occasions after having one. I think it happened those times because I was already emotionally overwhelmed when the panic attack occurred.

Vomiting is a less common symptom of anxiety than nausea, but both are caused by the fight or flight response.
