Not the same after cocaine night out?

[Babyblue233]

Hi! So basically about roughly two months ago, I used cocaine on a night out. I have done it on occasion for roughly a year and a half on some nights out but have never experienced the reaction I had a couple months ago. My heart started going extremely fast and my entire body was shaking, couldn't sit still and was definitely hyperventilating whilst walking around. Stupidly I didn't go to emergency room that night, as I calmed down a bit and managed to sleep. Next day I was fine. Day after that about midday I stood up and had palpitations, ringing in my ears and felt super dizzy, so went to emergency. They said although my heart was high was probably just panic. Has happened multiple times since then, once my heart rate reaching 186, with chest pains, dizziness, weakness in my left side and pain in my back occasionally. I've had a heart work up since and everything always seems to be fine even though im convinced i caused some damage that night. Nothing has been the same since and it's just gradually got worse. I have sinusitis as well so am on an antibiotic. Problems I've been dealing with that aggravate me the most are constant shortness of breath making it harder for me to do my normal activity, chest tightness and pain as well as back pain. Because I have a load of symptoms and am quite young (21) everyone is telling me it's anxiety and that something would have happened on the night if it was the cocaine (even though my cardiologist told me that it can cause issues after the incident). Obviously my symptoms list a huge amount of serious problems and it's made me so confused as to whether to take the pain seriously or not. I really don't know what to do because I want my life back so badly but it seems like these issues are just relentless. Every activity causes shortness of breath, and if I have chest pains combined with weakness and back pain it just ruins my day. Im seeing a therapist to see if it helps but it doesn't much other than just a nice conversation. I don't help myself by googling stuff and I'm just not sure what to do anymore :( could this all be anxiety or some health issue?

Most likely you're fine, and are suffering from thinking the bad experience will happen again.  This is how chronic anxiety gets going, and if you're prone to it -- and you never know if you are until it happens, unfortunately -- then recreational drugs can often bring it on by doing exactly what they do to the body biologically.
