Quick update on my heart. Feeling much better today!
I might get to take the even monitor off tomorrow evening, Monday evening. The monitor order is still registered to the old EP specialist. The new doctors would have to place a new order, so I will call them tomorrow. I made sure the tech manager put info in for the data to be sent to the new docs only.
I am happy to take this thing off, however, I want all the info possible on the ticker.
Heart is still tired, a little trouble breathing, some palpitations. I hope the fluttering can be better controlled so that I can be more active. There are days that I want to sleep all day. That is next on my list.
Also, I will start my job search this week. Wish me luck.
diabetes, exercise, medication, and my heart.

I agree. I want to know and I will ask for a full explanation that isn't too technical.

Okay so exercise and medication are essential for keeping diabetes under control. So it is understandable that today my blood sugar started to climb and climb. Ear infection, also. The dyes in the heart cath procedure interact with the medicine to harm your kidneys so I was off of the meds 5 days. No exercise for a week so not to reopen the wrist artery.
No wonder I made no sense at at 1:00pm, after lunch at 12:30. 2 hours after lunch my sugar was 189 and that was with the meds which I can now take. I wonder what it was at 1 hour. At 3:pm I felt better. Then went to the doctor.
No wonder I felt horrible today. Everything hurt including the heart.
Early to bed tonight. I need to get back on schedule.
