Late last year my anxiety was sky high. It got to the point that I was having panic attacks daily. Could barely function. Couldn't even pull myself together enough to make a doctor's appointment, my mom did it for me (I'm 36). 

Went to the appointment, saw a primary care doctor. Got a checkup, including an EKG. Something on the EKG wasn't normal, so they had me wear a heart monitor for 30 days. As it turns out I have an abnormal heart rhythm. Which CAN CAUSE anxiety.

I haven't had a single panic attack since I've been on medication to regulate my heart rate. My day-to-day anxiety is now practically non-existent. I had no idea this was possible so I wanted to share in case it's able to help someone out there.
