I have atrial fibulation sp?I rarely have a normal rhythm. I take digoxin for it,but it never really goes away. I hardly notice it anymore unless I get the racing heart episodes.
Katiebear again. Just got back from my cardiologist. Had a stress test, The one where you are injected with the radioactive stuff and then they take pictures and then you do the treadmill and take pictures again. If they are not all backed up it takes 2 and a half hours, Well they were totally backed up today! My appt. waS FOR 11 AM, I got home at four forty five! and it only takes 20 minuets to get there. The whole time I was waiting I was thinking about all my lovely quilting projects waiting at home. Luckily I had my Kindle with me:)
