I also have five dreams not sleeping well. Fast heart rate awakens me as well. I am able to slow it down by deep breathing but that feeling is terrifying

@kchastain, have you resumed taking your medication? I hope that you are feeling better. Please let me know how you are doing.
May I ask why you skipped 3 or 4 days? Were you wanting to stop taking the medication or had you simply forgotten to take it?
