I have dealt with anxiety like you have described though I didn't take medication for it so my advice is simply from a therapeutic standpoint.
I would suggest continuing going to go to the therapist for a couple of things:
1. He/She can help give you mental or physical resources to help lessen or get out of a panic attack. New situations is what sets me off into a panic so I had to learn things to do so I don't panic. I learned these through a therapist.
2. It sounds like you have many changes happening in your life that can cause stress which never helps anxiety. Talking through these things can help remove them as a source of stress.
3. He/She can also help track your reaction to your medication. Obviously if you do have a reaction or your anxiety really ramps up, see your family doctor but for day to day stresses over it the therapist can help.
