Wow, thanks for all the comments to my last post! I was surprised to find so many, but I suppose I shouldn't have been, what with you guys all being awesome and everything.

Anyway, it is as I suspected - I am to lay off the caffeine. I was hooked up to a heart monitor and on oxygen (standard procedure) and had an EKG and everything. It would all have been much more interesting if I hadn't been a combination of worried, tired (I didn't eat before I left, oops), and feeling silly. I'm the suck-it-up-and-deal type when it comes to not feeling well, which is partly why it took all weekend for me to decide to go in. Any other organ and I'd've taken my damn chances, but I know better than to mess around when it comes to my heart. Apparently they see their share of students who have been overdoing the caffeine, though, so I wasn't out of the ordinary or anything.

Thanks again for the good thoughts. I appreciate it a lot.

I'm glad you decided to go to the hospital even if it turned out to be what you'd suspected. You can never be too sure. Me, on the other hand, I'm the kind who won't go to the hospital until limbs are falling off, heh. :D

I was going to leave a comment on your other post, but I felt stupid because I never know what to say when friends are sick or hurting, or worried about serious stuff. You were in my thoughts though! That evil cackling you heard last night? That was totally me. I was pondering sociopath baseball players on a rampage.

Very glad everything's all right. (Also glad you went to the hospital just in case.)

I sometimes get squirmy heart from taking Adderall (plus caffeine, which I also should have less of) so I know it sucks. :( Hope you're feeling better, though, and glad to hear that it's not anything more serious.
