Martin,
Next time, just pour yourself a dry martini and sit down to a Thin Man movie. Seriously, though, try meditation. There are good, free online resources that can assist you including apps like Calm.
Based on my admittedly cursory review of the limited scholarly THC literature available online, there do appear to be significant cardiovascular risks to THC ingestion, including through edibles like Delta-8 and 9, including arrhythmias, myocardial infarction (heart attack) and interference with the effects if statins, beta blockers, calcium channel blockers and blood thinners. As a heart attack and quintuple CABG survivor, I would stay away from any form of THC ingestion UNLESS it was ordered by a physician for some other serious medical condition and, even then, only with the involvement and supervision of my cardiologist. And I say this as a 71 year old former card carrying member of the 1960's counterculture having thoroughly explored marijuana and other hallucinogens back in the day before moving away from them into non-chemical and far more effective meditation practice.
Good health to you and your wife,
Ira

Wife has been extremely ill and with me having a newer tavr aortic valve i wanted to relax one Saturday. I stopped by the Kratom store and purchased a pack of Delta 8 gummies. I ate two of them around 10:30am. At 12:30 my wife had call an ambulance. Im in constant AFIB but went into tachycardia with a bad rhythm. Was losing track of time, place, cognitive function was declining rapidly. 2 days in the hospital.
Moral of the story
Don't eat Delta 8 gummies
