Hey barb,
Write anytime. :)
After my dad had his heart attack, he had some major anxiety so he
started on Xanax and swears by it. Trick is to take as little as
possible as not to become addicted. The calming affects are pretty
addictive in themselves from what I've heard.
Take care,
Nif
PS You need to get a formal diagnosis of your arrhythmia before they can
do anything and I'm pretty sure they can't "ablate" the node but they
can remmove it at which point you'd need a pacemaker. Talk to your
Cardio. just to make sure.It's been a while since I've read up on all
the heart stuff. :)
