Ok, new developments in life.  It seems that my heart problems were nothing but newfound anxiety attacks.  We figured it out because I was at 30,000 ft on my way to San Diego via Salt Lake city and had a full blown attack.  We're talking cold sweats, nausea, rapid heart rate, felt like I was going to pass out, and the intense need to crawl out of my own skin.  It really sucked, almost couldn't get on the next leg of the flight.  So anywho, I'm on drugs to help level me out.  It seems that my 14 yrs of smoking did more to my body than just pump chemicals into it.  My doc is hypothesizing that the anxiety attacks were brought on because of my lack of stress reliever replacement.  I'm doing aerobic activity (running, spinning) to help but between my full course load, stupid husband tricks, work, body issues, feeling of going crazy, irrational fear of death, and other random things- life gets a little overwhelming and it seems that I don't know how to cope.  How sad is that.  Oh well, I'll fix it somehow.  It has now been 3 months since I quit smoking and although there are days that I really would like to have one, I am strong. :)  I've started training for a 5K that takes place in July.  I'm really looking forward to it. 
Anyhow, that is about all for now.  Life is generally good, even if I can't get all of my little synapses to agree with me. :)
