I'm 17 and suffer from heart palpatations which are apparently harmless and is caused what my heart specialist described as a 'mitral valve prolapse' ever since these physical symptoms i've suffered from anxiety and i am constantly thinking about my heartbeat. I just can not get it off my mind. When these palpatations happen, it really does feel like my life is coming to an end! even though my doctor said just relax and don't think about it, how can i not?! what makes things worse is i am an extreme flying phobic and i'm due to fly out in less than a week! :(! I have diazepam from my doctor but i keep thinking what if it doesn't work or what if my heart goes into 'attack mode'. I want to take the flight and i am determined to do so, if i can't fly i'll always be stuck in the same place, any last minute tips or advice would be appreciated.
