I went to the hospital for a routine colonoscopy and my heart went into tachycardia. I mean that baby was really pumping - 145 BPM! They scrubbed the colonoscopy - which sucked since I had already prepped and also paid a LOT of money for medical transport since they wouldn't let me take a cab or Uber - but now will have to go back to do it all over. They shipped me to the E.R. and there they got my heart rate down to normal. They called for a crash cart, which was none-too comforting, but didn't have to use it, thankfully.

At anu rate drugs put me back in sinus rhythm.

It was not a surprise so much because I knew I had Atrial Fibrilation (AFIB) and odd heart rhythms are the gift of that. I had enjoyed a cardio-inersion, back in '24, which is essentially where they stop your heart momentarily and restart it. Not painful, just scary. They didnt have to do it again as I ame out of tachycardia.

Associates of my cardiologist came to visit me, two of them actually. Both thought it was probably because I had to hold my medication and coupled with the prep, which went WAY over my allotted fluid intake, put too much stress on the old gnarled punp.

Anyway they kept me in the hospital to perform more tests. My stress test came out fine (not a full one on a treadmill but a chemical one). I was glad they didn't try to put me on the treadmill; a friend lost his father to a heart attack that way; the guy died in the room where he was taking the test.

At any rate I am home now and ready to get back on the horse (well, with me it's more like a burro.) So I had a little scare but wound up none the worse for wear.

1 "More like a burro..." Is that a veiled hat-tip to Cinco de Mayo?

At the facility my wife is currently incarcerated in, I have to sign in to see her. Yesterday, on Cinco de Mayo, the attendant at the desk was wearing an absolutely spectacular hat.

2 My sympathies. I was in hospital with Covid last month, which put me into atrial fibrillation. It finally went away on its own, so no cardioversion needed. They switched me from Plavix.  which I've been on for yous at $4.85 per month out of pocket, to Eliquis, at $200 per month out of pocket. Lost 40 pounds and still trying to get back on my feet. Getting old is not for cowards.

4 It was Dana. I could have said donkey or other such.
I remember that signing in all the time; pain in the neck.
I'm sorry to hear that Bill! Sounds like we have similar issues.
I take Eliquis myself, but it's nowhere near as expensive for me out of pocket. Your insurance probably calls it a tier one drug ((or is it three - don't remember which is the new and the old) and won't cover it.
Interestingly enough I got out of the hospital and lost all sense of smell and developed cold symptoms and the home tesst showed positive for Covid. I wonder if Covid messes with Afib?
Glad you are doing better.

5 It does. They told me my afib was caused by the Covid virus.
