[Mike_lfc_92]

My mind has basically been taken over by all the small illnesses and other things i have had wrong with my over the past 7 months, but the main one is having sex. I am majorly scared i will have a heart attack because my heart is racing all the time when i put my hand on it and i just want to know if its safe for me to have sex? lol

Mike,

I can't think of a better way to go out my friend.

I actually read that Sex is good exercise and helpful for your heart. It should race...sex is exciting!

It's your anxiety---accept it, it increases adrenaline, releases feel good chemicals, so enjoy sex. I was afraid of anything that increased my heart rate or blood pressure, but had to stop allowing anxiety to hinder my life.

While I still have my fears, I don't let them control me.

Work through it, accept the fears, and face your anxiety; you can win this one
