Re: So pretty sure I have AF...now what to do?
Jb, an important part of any stressful event is having someone to talk with about it. If you want to, you can IM me at Yahoo. I am midibluenote.
I think it is probably a good thing that you stopped taking your vitamins/minerals and are now relying on food for nutrition. That is what I did about 7 days ago. My legs now feel less toxic, I can move a bit better and have more energy.
You mentioned Xanax.
Abruptly stopping benzodiazapines such as Xanax can cause symptoms such as anxiety and sleep disturbances. Some drugs, such as the notorious S.S.R.I. Paxil, have been reported to cause suicidal tendencies when their use is stopped abruptly.
Since the benzodiazapines' and S.S.R.I's effect is similar (the prevention of reuptake of certain hormones), the discontinuation of their use should be gradual.
Your naturopath should be able to advise you on this. Maybe make a phone call to him or her today and explain the urgency of your case.
