Fu Friends N Family:
Very difficult past 2 weeks: The top half of my heart is beating at 150 beats per minute; normal is below 100...the drugs my DR tried me on damn near killed me as the side effects lasted 15 hours ; none of it good. I guess I looked like walking death as numerous people came up to me and asked if I was alright?
Yesterday, he precribed a new pill who's job is to not only slow the heart rate beat but lower the blood pressure. The bloold pressure was always ok but the former has been the topic of conversation moving forward.
2nite, for the first time in 2 weeks, I was able to play my guitar and do stuff and actually feel somewhat human again. Today, I was able to walk over 6 miles; this is remarkable progress considering my all time best of 22 miles in a day is a feat was back in August 2019. In short, I"m starting over again as it pertains to walking and getting my life back.
I don't know if the heart pill I took today is going to be a long term solution but I took it at 11:30 AM local time and I have to say, at least this pill didn't punish me for being sick. Is it the answer? I don't know. My options are either this pill, digoxin or a surgical implant or just let God decide.
Anyways, being able to play my guitar, go for a walk and let the sun shine on my face is my idea of a good day !
You all be cool
