Had a meet and greet with my new doctor this AM. (old one retired) Nice guy, friends with two of my sons .After a few questions and review of my med. history he gives me a BP check and listens to the old ticker.
He stops and says "this doesn't sound right" so calls for an EKG.
Looks at it and says your heart is in AFIB and sends me next door the the hospital ER.
ER checks me in, does all the necessary stuff, then calls in the heart doc who looks at everything and says yup, that's what it's doing alright.
Talked about admitting me for the night, but then after checking a little more says, it's pretty typical AFIB, nothing really serious, go home and well call you tomorrow for a few more tests.
So I'll know more tomorrow, sounds like they want to treat it with drugs vs. going in an fixing it. I now I wait.
It sucks growing old
