Who else on here experiences this condition sometimes with Amphetamine use? Atrial fibrillation is when an abnormal level of electrical impulses are sent to the heart muscle, overriding the hearts natural pace maker, resulting in a sudden sharp increase in BMP rate (usually somewhere in the 140-160bpm range).
I experienced a bad bout of this earlier and really felt like I was on the verge of a heart attack or stroke. I felt dizzy with tingling in my hands, fingers, feet and toes along with minor muscle aches. I took 2 grams of Vitamin C (2 x 1g tabs, crushed up before swallowing), followed by a gulp of water. I then opened my window to breath in some clean air. This helped a little bit, but not completely. So I took 1mg of Xanax about 15 minutes later. It's been about an hour since I took that and I feel fine now. But it sure as hell put the fear into me.
So if you experience this yourself, how do you deal with it or reduce/prevent it from reoccurring?
