Default Heart driving me nuts

Tough to read,sorry
I am 40 years old,male in decent shape and never had a problem before 1996,I smoke(tring to quit).My problem is I have had a rapid heart rate of 220 bpm in 1996,was givin meds to slow it down,that worked.(got really bad anixity after that)Then in 1999 while walking my dog she got into a fight with another dog and my heart went into Atrial Fib where I had to have a cardioversion done.(That rally freeked me out even more)and Just last week I was sleeping in my bed and I dreamed that my heart was in Atrial fib,well I woke up thinking wow that was only a dream but I soon knew that my heart was once again in atrial fib.I went to the Hospital where they did a cardioversion again.I have had NO chest pain during none of this and my Cardo doctor found nothing wrong.I was taking 25mg of toprol before the last episode and now my doc wants me to take 50mg which I have been doing.The problem is I now take toprol in the morning instead of at night before I go to bed.Now I have been waking up with a fast heart rate every other day.If I sleep upright then I sleep all night but it seems when I am laying down(or eat to much)my heart rate goes up.This is driving me nuts.Smoking gives me heart palpatation more now then before so I am quiting the cigs.Does anyone have any ideas??????????Please help

Also back in 1996 the same day I was taking a musle relaxent for a back injury and I smoked some really strong weed may have been laced with something(I have not touch the stuff since or any other drugs or beer since 1996)Now I have this awefull fear of dieing 24/7 and fear is running my life.I do have a strong faith in god and pray all the time but,you know how that goes.I could use a friend to talk to even if its email,I'm kinda short on friends these days other than my feonsay and she's a wonderful girl(an Angel).
