I'm not a doctor and don't play one on TV ... sounds like tension.
Right could have been diagnostically significant for something not involving your heart.

One other question, LJ. Any family history of heart problems?

not really. my uncle had one at 55 or so.....but he eats so bad that he had to have his asshole replaced......so. my dad's aunts and uncles are in their 90's, my moms folks died of cancer and a stroke in their late 60's and early 70's.
again, the whole point here was that i am amazed at the power of suggestion. I'm not really worried about my heart.....i mean it pounded for 4 hours at least twice with out giving out.

That is fairly good news, then. One of the major factors is having a family history of heart disease. This would seem to let you off the hook, especially if your uncle's difficulty was due mainly to poor diet.

As others have said, sounds like classic panic attack brought on by weed. Weed appears to have a paradoxical effect on some. There are some it just relaxes or makes them extremely hungry. However, there are other people, who at times it will cause this effect and other times they will not get the anxiety at all. I've had a couple of these. Both times, I went outside took some deep breaths and just had to make my brain take back over. They were really scary. I thought I was dying both times. If panic attacks continue, I agree with the others concerning the remedies. See a psychiatrist and either get on a medication such as paxil, effexor, etc.... or he may want to try you for a brief period on ativan, xanax, valium, etc.... There is also a non-addictive drug caused buspar that helps some. Paxil and effexor have been found to be non-addictive as well. However, the latter group I mentioned can be highly addictive if used over a long period of time. GOOD LUCk!!!!

I'm told there is a difference between addiction and dependency, as in, my body is dependent on Paxil but I am not addicted to it in that I can wean off if I want or need to.

There is a difference between physical dependence and addiction. Don't take my word for it. Do some research..... Just trying to help. DearGod!!!!
