RELAX!!!!!

I know that you are panicking. I know this is scary. You need to try to stay as calm as you can.

If you have orange juice in the house, go get about four ounces and drink it. Absolutely NO sugar, caffeine, fruit, or anything stimulating.

If you feel that it is an emergency, call 911 or go immediately to the ER.

XR is designed to have two releases. It is generally taken once daily. You may not get much sleep tonight.

An old trick- lay comfortably on your back with your eyes closed and lightly lay your fingertips over your eyelids. Stay that way for several minutes. My dad learned that from his cardiologist to manage rapid heart beat. I use it and it works for me.
