Do post as much detail as you are comfortable. We are not doctors but can sure give our opinions based on our collective front line experiences.
If you are really stressed and freaked out, ask for some anti-anxiety meds for the short term. There is nothing wrong in getting some help to allow you to sleep and think well, especially during times like this where you have to be alert and able to make smart decisions.
Good luck today, Don
