While I've never had an anxiety attack, I'm pretty sure I have some mild form of social anxiety. Often, just doing something simple like preparing for a night going out with friends, or meeting someone new, I'll feel like you feel when you're about to give a class presentation. I get nervous and shaky, my heart will start pounding, and sometimes I'll sweat pretty badly, particularly if I'm outdoors. Or after a conversation, particularly with someone I don't know too well, I will over-analyze everything I said and what I could have said. It's not too fun..
