Maybe 15 years or so ago, I woke up late one night; my heart pounding out of of chest. 2 Am or so.
No alcohol--no drugs--no nothing; except my cigarette smoking from the night before. (I was a 2-3 pk a day man).
Drove myself to the ER of local hospital. Several nurses and several docs on duty looked at me. My heart cotinued to race --and I thought I was dying. Finally a small fellow ( who now I know was Indian came in). He did something to the back of my neck; I felt FINE AGAIN! I really thought I was dying and this was in a city of about 1/2 million people.
I learned so much from this Indian fellow who is a heart specialist ( MAGNA CUM LAUDE--but as modest as any human you could ever find); I quit smoking some years later and yet had the meds to control the problem if I had wished to continue. My point is only this. He was the ONLY one of all the folks who saw me that morning that SOLVED my problem. I am gratefull for this guy.
