Background. I'm a healthy , in shape 24 year old. Weigh about 160, 6ft tall. Only prior opiate experience, I had a work accident at 18 and was prescribed 30/300 codeine pills for about 6 months. No abuse, no recreational use , no addiction.
About a year and a half ago (now 22-23 years old) I started using oxycodone and/or roxicodone recreationally. Started at around 10-20mg per night , spaced out once per week (orally). Two months became 20-50mg's twice a week (oral &occasional intranasal). Six months became 20-50mg's 3-4 times a week (oral & intranasal). At a year I was doing about 20-75mg sometimes even as high as 100mg's in a day, 4-6 days a week (oral & intranasal).
This was my peak consumption level. I was starting to do other opiates when my preferred oxycodone was not available. Ex hydromorphone (diluadids) morphiene, one week was fentanyl. All oral or intranasal.
One night I had acquired six 80mg oxycodone tablets. I was not receiving the intended effect and each hour kept taking another half a pill until I had ingested 320mg's within a few hours. I suppose they were time release and it hit me all at once. It was too much, I had to walk myself (thankfully 2 blocks) to the nearest hospital as I thought I would potentially overdose, feeling all the effects of having taken just too much.
They shot me with Ativan (10 mg I think) and let me pass out. They seemed worried about my condition but it seemed to pass fine. I woke up and was discharged. No note about anything heart or otherwise related.
After a week or so I started back to oxy. I was taking 20-30 mg's a day once or twice a week. However now I would feel extremely anxious every time I took a pill and started to feel the effects. Racing , pounding heart. Flush face and legs and worry some thoughts of heart failure. I'm not sure if these panic attacks are because of the oxy use or a health problem.
My consumption slowed but didn't stop. Now every time I try and take any, even a 5mg Percocet I get nervous and feel like I'm having and anxious/panic attack with a pounding heart. Once it was so sever with very little consumption I had a friend drive me to the hospital. They didn't seem concerned about the dose or at all concerned about me , just a 'druggie' having a panic attack.
I have not consumed in a few months out of worry.
Does anyone know if the usage of this drug could have negatively affected my heart? Has something similar happened to anyone? Can I actually harm myself from as little as 10-20mg, for example if I took 10mg right now? Or is it safe and just in my head from the previous experience?
I know , a lot of filler, I just wanted to not miss anything or any possible reason I could be feeling like this.
