i was hoping to see some of you on bart but i never got to bart , a little explination. i have a-fib - a flutter . i was getting my bath at 0500 , went to turn around and the heart took off doing 150-156 bpm. i have certain emergency proceedures in place to deal with the naughty heart. i alerted my ride via skype that i was in trouble .i then called 911. medics came , took me to hospital which is a mile away. the er drs gave me 3 doses of my emergency med in liquid form and then liquid dialtiazem which got the rate down into the 90s, however the heart was still in a flutter as wittnesed by the o scope via a crankey saw tooth wave . i was put under semi local anasteisa and was electrically converted . we have sinus rythem. all is not lost , a friend sent me a link so i can watch the parade via live feed. being there and marching with u in spirit. too bad some of us du members couldent march together next year. new goal. shooting for modesto pride in september. be well, be safe . 73 de allan01bear.
