Yep. Very.

When I was drinking, I used to get them all the time. I would even go into B-Fib a day or two after a bender and would have to go to the ER and get cardio-verted to get back on a normal rhythm.

I remember being terrified the first half dozen or so times. But I eventually got to the point where I could control my adrenaline, and still can now. For like when I go on a roller coaster or something. You learn to calm yourself down after enough times. I remember sitting in a waiting room HOURS before I would get cardioverted and you are in a panic, cold sweats, and mind is racing.

It is easily one of the most unnerving things ever.
