Hi so a bit of backstory, I took 0.3g of MDMA one and a half months ago. Two days after this I had tachycardia of a heart rate of 140bpm for two days straight. I went to the hospital and they did an EKG that came back as normal and they said that it will resolve by itself and was a combination of the comedown.
After this, I assume because of having a weak immune system during this time I got tonsillitis, went to various doctors had three rounds of antibiotics. The doctors assured me my heart issues were anxiety related but I somehow am always doubting it. Since the tonsillitis I've had a cold and blocked ears for about two months which I'm not sure what it is.
Because this was so traumatic (I think?) I started having pretty bad anxiety where I would keep getting worried about my heart rate going up and it was pretty fast a lot of the time. So I bought a Fitbit which showed that my resting heart rate was always between 71-65 bpm over the two weeks that I've been wearing it. This was reassuring but I do see my heart rate going to around 100 bpm when just sitting.
The anxiety started to resolve lately and I wasn't feeling anxious most days and didn't think about my heart much. I started going out again and even drinking!
But a few days ago I was put on an antibiotic for my persistent ear infection and made the mistake of having a mojito. (I know I probably shouldn't have drank)
This was going so well...
Until yesterday. I noticed my heart rate was 110 on my fitbit (after I got home from drinking the mojito), I watched it sail all the way to 130 bpm. This reminded me of that first comedown after the MDMA and I was so scared. I called 999 but they said that they wouldn't send an ambulance because this isn't serious. So I went to the ER and had multiple tests done and was told it was probably because I was ill (a slight temperature) and a combination of anxiety (did another EKG and blood work to find nothing abnormal).
Today I feel like I'm back at square one, had that anxious butterfly feeling in my stomach and the anxiety pains underneath my chest.
Please help I don't want this to ruin my life I'm only 19! Did the MDMA cause this and is it also responsible for these cold-like symptoms that wont go away either?
