What an exciting talk! It confirms an intuition regarding my heart. I was born with an atrial flutter, misdiagnosed as tachycardia, at age 4 years. I was treated with quinidine for years, then beta-blockers, followed by digitalis. These drugs failed to recognize the origin of the heart problem – a failed abortion attempt when I was about 2 months in utero.
My life was full of physical, emotional and spiritual neglect. The drugs, and natural wariness, kept me isolated from my family. In a way, drugs saved me by keeping me alive during my youth, when I was most vulnerable.
I had an ablation in 1992, which healed the arrhythmia, but not the heartache and flight or fight response to stresses. Most recently, I have turned to meditation and exercise, which help some. However, I trigger easily and fall into and fall into heartache and depression. This isn’t acceptable! I lost the first part of my life to dysfunction; I will not loose the end of my life to reliving it.
