Hi Ladies,
So I've been at home bored for the last few days cause I've been home sick. I have a congenital heart defect where my heart is considered "backwards". I recommend googling Transposition of the Great Vessels, but basically my arteries go into the wrong ventricles. Anyways the last few days, starting Saturday evening, I've been having heart palpitations almost constant all day Sunday, Monday, and mostly today. I was able to get into the doctor's office today, where of course they couldn't hear anything every time they had the stethoscope on me, but they did have me get my blood drawn. But tomorrow, I get to have more tests done. Tomorrow at 7am my FI and I will be back at the hospital for a cardiac echo, and a 24 hour heart monitor. All these things I've had before, including the palpitations, but never have they been so bad that I missed work and basically stuck on the couch for two days. I counted on Sunday for an hour, and I had 45 of them. Basically at this point, I'm frustrated, tired, and my breast bone hurts. I haven't been sleeping well with this, and neither has my FI since he is worried about me. All I hope is they have some answers soon and they figure out how to make something like this not happen again and that everything is all around fine, and this isn't a sign of larger problems. I have been uncomfortable for days, and I'm just ready to have answers. So my guess is that they may alter my medication a bit, I've been on two of the three for about 13 years, and the other one for a year. So I don't know. Anyways I just wanted to talk about it I guess. I like you ladies, and wanted to just wanted to let you all know
