THings happen

It's hard to say what is happening. But if you needed a PM your heart was having problems that may get worse. It sounds a little like a heart block, but those usually show up on an EKG.

On the vitamins, just be sure you're not taking meg doses - stay within the USDA RDA amounts.

Keep working with your doctor and talking to us. Is he can't resolve it or tell you why, you might want a second opinion.
