Since I’ve been getting PVCs recently, I measure my blood pressure and heart rate at least once a day. The readings I get is kind of weird (105-110/50-55). The systolic pressure is perfect but the diastolic is very low. I don’t know what this means but I hope it isn’t bad. My heart rate is also very slow at times (50-55). This is probably good if I run a lot, but I don’t.
So I pulled my right groin over 3 months ago in a fantastic feat of amazing athletic ability…not. But it’s still bothering me. Took anti-inflammatories, came back. Got physical therapy, no help. Took Medrol, came back. I have an appointment with an orthopedist in 2 weeks. Hopefully he can fix me up.
This is my first blog on this cool site. I love how easy it is to enter blogs! I’m not very computer savvy.
Made an appointment with a cardiologist today. The earliest time he has available to check out my heart is… hold your breath… in 1 month! The scheduler didn’t even ask me what’s wrong with my heart. What if I had something serious? I’ll probably be dead within a month.
Something has to change in the American health care system. I have full coverage Blue Cross PPO and I cannot imagine someone with Medicaid or HMO trying to make an appointment.
I found an article today about Diet soda linked to heart risks. “People who drank one or more diet sodas each day developed the same risks for heart disease as those who downed sugary regular soda,…” Diet or regular, they’re all just sugar water. Nothing beats a glass of refreshing h2o.
Study: Diet Soda Linked to Heart Risks
Came home yesterday and all of the sudden felt sick. I had a fever and the arrhythmia went crazy. I guess fever is a trigger for arrhythmia as well.
My arrhythmia has been pretty bad recently. Probably from stress. I’ve been getting 5-6 PVC per minute and they’re really noticeable. Sometimes it feels like the heart is going to stop beating…
That huge bump is finally going away after a week of buring with my pimple burner “zeno”.
