Dude-
Glad you are A-OK. You may have vagal'ed out. There are things we do when people have a "runaway heartbeat" like put there face in cold water, stroke their neck and (you are gonna love this) press on their eyeballs. This slows their heart-as you have experienced with your increase in intraoccular pressure.
I hate that e started you with narcs for your resultant headache....and DEMEROL at that-YIKES- I haven't pushed demerol in years with so many other (better) drugs out there for use. But, medicine being a practice....people practice differently.

Thank you for keeping us posted-let us know how this turns out for you.
