marijuana is going to raise your heart rate dramatically without much change in blood pressure and cause the paranoia that you're experiencing about being afraid you're going to have a heart attack. You're not going to have a heart attack if your results came back fine. In my personal experience, the faster the heart beats, the better the stuff you got. Learn to embrace the increased heart rate as a good thing and let it contribute to a better high. If you feel yourself getting a little freaked out, try and do some quick meditation techniques and try to relax. You'll be fine. If you find the anxiety too much and can't get a hold of any benzodiazepines (i.e. Xanax, Valium, etc.), cut down on how much you smoke. Not a lot though. Just experiment until you're comfortable
