Need Help With Panic Attacks After Wearing Plaster Cast
A plaster cast was put on my right wrist yesterday I have a small broken bone in my right wrist. I almost went crazy last night with panic attacks. Only 3 hours sleep . Awake now and still feel trapped. Should I go back to my dr today. Wanted to chisel the cast off myself during the night.
