Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia is what they’re initially saying. Still testing and scanning me and taking ALL my blood. “IST is a clinical syndrome characterized by a sinus heart rate inexplicably higher than one hundred beats per minute while at rest”
Did you have a lot of caffeine beforehand? I once had a heart race incident (like probably close to 200 bpm for several seconds out of the blue), and did the 24 hour monitor thing and everything. Was shortly after a blood clot in the calf too, lung scan and everything. No PE thankfully. Was probably consuming 800mg+ of caffeine a day leading up to it plus all the stress from the clot the month before, work, delayed cross-country move due to the medical stuff, etc. I’m ok now though. Hoping for a full and quick recovery on your end! 🙏
@UpBeatSkeletor Yup! I have aFib with IST. I'm all sorts of fun for my cardiologists! 🤣
@UpBeatSkeletor I just saw your other posts, I hope they take good care of you while you're there but that you get out of there soon ❤️
@UpBeatSkeletor Good and positive vibes your way!!🧡🧡🧡
@UpBeatSkeletor Hope everything goes back to normal.
@UpBeatSkeletor Hope everything goes well for you! They’ll probably order an ECHO or an EKG. Might prescribe beta blockers. A lot of times IST is from panic or over exertion and sometimes stimulants or caffeine. (I worked a defibrillator and worked in a cath lab for a bit)
@UpBeatSkeletor I was following you when you had your liver transplant. My stepdad had a liver transplant years ago Elon had me unfollowing you 🙄 Glad to have found you again. Hope they get a handle on what’s going on and spring you out soon!
