Call your PCP, who: put you on Oxycodone, and have that discussion. Even though it may not be related to oxycodone, it may be related to panic attacks, and if so, you need to be on a completely different therapy/protocol to reduce the attacks. Also, your thyroid may need to be checked, and labs done to rule out any hyperthyroid involvement.
