Sorry if it's not the right forum or place. I called a friend at work and she's coming over here to get me cuz I can't drive and I too scared to call the ambulance and go by myself

Doctor called the pharmacy and my regular practitioner and they all decided that I should be okay they monitored my blood pressure in my heart rate for about an hour and he told me that I was probably anxious because of the lack of anxiety and depression medicine and that he wanted to put my mind at ease and let me know that he didn't think I was going to have a heart attack
