Dear Pat
I have been on pain meds (hydrocodone) for over a year, I need a hip replacement, but it is a preexisting condition so I cant get one till next year, anyway my point being that although you may think the pain meds help with sleep the y do NOT, the y interrupt the sleep cycles, it could very well be the pain meds that caused the panic attack. Best to get off them ASAP for your health and wellbeing. HTH. Blessings, Karen Conrad

Subject: CS>Panic Attack



I had panic attack tonight. It was so horrible. It went on for about 3 hours. I've had them twice before when I had trouble breathing, but only for 1/2 hour or so. This one started when I used my Xalatan eye drops which keep the pressure down. They stung and burned so badly (they always sting some for up to an hour) and I used soothing eye lubricant drops. I don't know why I couldn't tolerate the eye pain tonight. I'm still on oxycodone 5 weeks out from my partial knee replacement, and I took one which usually makes me sleepy. I slept a little and then awoke and was still anxious and could feel my heart beating hard. My blood pressure was fairly high, so I took a Cozaar (I'm on 25 mg/day). I took Calcium, too thinking maybe I'm taking too much magnesium lately. I got up and watched tv with hubby for a while and came back to bed and thought I'd be ok, but I still can't sleep. I'll go take a lorazepam which I have in case I need help sleeping and use rarely, but that will ruin my day tomorrow. Has anyone else had panic attacks? They're worse than pain or anything I've ever experienced. I've done very well after my knee replacement. I walk without a cane now at home. I guess I have quite a bit of pain because I'm doing lots of physical therapy.


Pat
