Update from me

Ok, so still not sleeping but I did go to my doctor to get the whole rapid heart rate thing looked at. I now have Ventricular tachycardia in addition to my mitral valve prolapse. Lovely!!!!! Honestly, when it rains it pours. Atleast the weather is starting to warm up. Ok thats it for now.

Becky,
Chicago

This is usually how things happen to me: in threes. Have you had your three yet or are you working on four and five, lol?

Sorry to hear of this.

Adi,
I woud rather my heart rate be low. The arrythmia I have can quickly and without warning send me into cardiac arrest. I know you are not old by any means but I am about ten years younger then you so please forgive me for worrying.

Lynn,
I am not sure if this is three or four but it is one of those. honest to God, and people wonder why I hate the doctor.

Thanks all for the support and understanding.

Becky,
Chicago

I'm so sad for you, there have got to be brighter days coming for you. I mean you said the weather was getting better.

i wish you strength in this time of sleeplessness. SCI is a lot worse when you can't sleep.
