I went 20 years before I had my first panic attack. I've only had a few what I would call panic attacks. Where I just had to get up in the middle of the night. The few bad ones I notice I got really overheated and could not get the blanket off. When I'm really hot, I just don't feel like I'm getting enough air. If I lay to flat I can't breath as good either. I have the bed remote, but it has fallen a few times.
I more often get this obsessive worrying. Then that leads to worrying I'm going to have an attack if I lay down. Only once it was bad enough I stayed up all night in my chair. Then I feel bad I gave in to it. I have bed, fan, tv, remotes now. I have them all tied onto the bed remote. Unfortunately to use one I have to uncover my arm and often can't get it covered back up. Luckily, most of the tv is voice controlled. I still need to get control of my lights. I had it on my Sicare, but the switch receiver burned/shorted out. My biggest issue at night is for some reason just getting pretty warm, not even overheated, just enough to feel warm hands. My arms start feeling like they are frozen. I feel so cold I start uncontrollably shaking. I uncover my arms and it gets better, but just until I get for real cold. I only shake that bad when my arms get warm from blankets, temp normal, or my temp drops to 95.5 or lower. I don't think it's Dysreflexia, that usually drops my temp. No other way of getting warm causes this. Once I start shaking that bad I start feeling like I NEED to get up. Greg
