Some people have a sensitivity to adrenaline, and they should be given beta-adrenergic blockers to help keep the rate down when there is an arrythmia.

Others have a Vagus nerve sensitivity that drives their arrhythmia, particularly AF (atrial fibrillation). I don't have much background in that, but I do know that some use Vagus nerve stimulating actions to help. There are YouTube videos on that.

Thank you for the advice. I do take a small amount of Metoprolol, and maybe could take more. It did cause a significant weight gain, and tends to lead to depression, but then all these arrhythmias aren't making me feel great, either!
