My heart pacemaker cells went catywampous in lat 2017, for no reason that medical science could detect. The timer connection between chambers broke, and the chamber pumping blood into my lungs reset to idle speed, 46 bpm. Now I have a pacemaker.
Did one of the SARS virii do for me?
I live in W. Oregon, and it just started snowing.
My first sign of heart rhythm issues happened in 1994 when my pilots physical began requiring an EKG. I was OK with it and had a waiver. In 2008 I had a heat stroke putting up hay in the heat of the summer. After that my heart rhythm got knocked off enough my heart began to enlarge because the valves weren't in time. I was put on meds to keep things ok.
Fast forward to 2020 and I began to have serious vertigo and hallucinations during the physical tasks in my job. My discharge fraction was very low. Like 21%.
Today with a synchronization pacemaker I'm at 50% which is a perfectly normal heart function. No heart disease, no high blood pressure, no clogged or hardened arteries. Never smoked. Now my heart is normal size too.
