Before treating: There is the risk of overtreating. Sleep hygiene along with a sleep study may be needed as high blood pressure is common in patients with sleep apnea. MM edibles may help with sleep, but you developed a relatively rare side effect ( panic attack) likely due to too much THC in the product. Your treating doc remains your best resource at this point as having access to your detailed medical history.

Avoid sleeping pills: Prior to engaging in a treatment program which at best would be a coverup, get evaluated for specific sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea. Your emotional state may also need attention.
