Lou I was getting ready to post you back and my Aunt called long distance so I was on the phone a few minutes. Thank you for your reply, I think I know how this all started, I have had panic and anxiety off and on for 5 years but I never worried about my heart, it usually was shaking and dizzy, one night I woke up because I was stressed and worrying and my heart starting racing and skipping beats about 2 weeks ago, ever since then I have been so fixtated on my heart, short of breath, pain in arm, heart pals etc... I guess after 2 weeks I would of had a heart attack by now would you not think? I smoke but I am trying to cut back I am sure that does not help, do you take meds? I have weaned off Zoloft and am now taking Klonopin and I am praying to GOd for strength and courage to help my son and husband and get through this, do you have many heart symptoms too? This is strange that these new symptoms would just start so quick! I have severe health-anxiety, I fear death and I hate being like this. Thank you so much for your prayers and support. Please write back when you can. God bless you, Debbie.
