Today was a day. I woke up at 4:40 with a rapid & irregular heartbeat. It didnโt get better by the market open. I went to the ER where I was diagnosed with AFIB-first time anything like this has happened. The docs gave me some meds to bring my heart back into rhythm. It didnโt work. They decided to shock my heart back into rhythm with paddles-just like the movies. After I came out of the anesthesia I felt nauseous. My heart rate began to decline till I crashed. I was awake the entire time. The room was packed with people working on me. I was terrified & knew in real time I was dying & ny body kicked into fight mode to stay alive. After 2 shots of adrenaline & other interventions I stabilized. The fact I am in such good physical shape helped me. It was a scary experience. I am spending the night in cardiac ICU. My beautiful wife was with me through this entire thing. I am so grateful to be alive. So thankful my story isnโt over. God is good.
