Would a stern note from your doctor to your boss help?

A fellow here was 48, and two weeks away from setting up an appointment for surgical treatment for his atrial fibrillation. He did marathons, biked all the time, inspired kids to get active - and he died of a heart attack on a relaxing bike ride last fall. Thankfully, he apparently didn't know what hit him.

David - not to worry. You got treatment - the guy above didn't get serious about it til it was too late. I am just trying to stress that your boss is ignorant! This isn't 'beating a little fast'. I'd get some info from your doc for him.
