I woke up this morning extremely ill. Threw up for several hours, major body aches, fainted, and have one scary symptom I've never had -- racing heart. It has been almost 12 hours now, the heart rate has decreased but is still fast.
Is this a herx or should I be going to a doctor?
Thanks.

Thanks....I know I should go to a doctor but I can't afford it. I'm 100% better now. I think it was due to a combination of a herx and extreme stress that I am going through right now related to my relationship, and money. I will have insurance soon, so if it happens again I'll go straight to the ER. I will also look into the potassium issue.
