    Premature Atrial Contractions

    "This past Wednesday morning, I experienced another period of continuing palpitations. My cardiac team got back to me this morning, and let me know that what was happening was premature atrial contractions."

    Cardiac concerns as a transgender woman

    "Something I’ve been struggling with lately is the intersection of my identification as a trans woman and my recent diagnosis with cardiac issues."

  5. CW: Trans, spoonie, cardiac issues

    Something I've been struggling with lately is the intersection of my identification as a #trans woman and my recent diagnosis with cardiac issues. To recap that: I was diagnosed with #AFib, #POTS, and an enlarged aorta, among others.

    It's relatively common knowledge, I think, that men and women experience significantly different symptoms of heart attack.

  6. I just spent a little over 3 hours in an ER because of a prolonged #AFib episode. I tried to wait it out for a couple of hours before giving in and going. I don't think I'll wait that long next time. I'm exhausted and I think I've triggered another #fibromyalgia flare.

  7. Followup:

    I got a response from the doctor's office already. They are having the transmission sent to them for review by the doctor. More significantly, though, per the RN:

    "In the meantime, If you have another episode of low heart rate accompanied with light headedness or dizziness we would recommend ER evaluation."

    So that's fun. Maybe a bit more significant than I thought.

  8. That's when I noticed the heart rate recording showed that 30 bpm reading over a two hour window. Dug in a little deeper and discovered it was from about 12:27pm until 1:25pm. That's roughly when I started to regain awareness of my surroundings.

    Fun times, eh?

  9. I also messaged the doctor via the portal to let them know I had sent that transmission.

    It started with what I thought was me falling asleep at my WFH desk. I startled "awake", realized I was feeling exhausted, and went to lie down in my bed. I had limited awareness of what was going on until I started to come out of it at about 1:45pm.

    I checked the health app (Samsung) curious as to how long I had slept in that "nap".

  10. I had an episode this afternoon where for roughly an hour, my #HeartRate dropped to 30bpm. This is according to my smartwatch readout. You may remember that I have experienced some #bradycardia in the past year, and it's part of why I had a loop recorder implanted in my chest recently. Never before has such an episode lasted this long though.

    I transmitted the readings from the recorder to the cardiac doctor's office.

  11. Echocardiogram

    "I had a transthoracic echocardiogram on Monday 20-May, as a followup to my cardiac diagnostics. They wanted to check on that enlargement of the ascending aorta, as well as the aortic valve calcification. Short story: Everything is stable."

  12. Having a rough day. Multiple #POTS episodes, now with headache. Not #migraine though. I haven't had a day like this since starting compression socks. 😞

  13. CW: eye contact, selfie

    Good morning! I am ready for my (two) doctor appts today. Getting started with a whole new medical team after relocation (especially for a #spoonie) is a major undertaking. Luckily one appt (electrophysiologist) is video. We'll discuss possible placement of an ILR.

  14. I need to come up with $590 in the next couple of months to cover copay for a couple of cardiac diagnostic procedures.

    Worst case, I can pay it one procedure at a time out of my Social Security, but that means it will be March or later before I can get them both done.

    I am really anxious to get this diagnosis phase done. Oh, well. Patience is supposedly a virtue.

  15. I am planning on getting a name and gender change order in the coming year. I was born in Texas, but no longer live there. It seems to me (IANAL) that there would be a cause of action under the "Full Faith and Credit" clause of Article IV of the Constitution if they decide to deny me my birth certificate change.

    Of course, with the current makeup of the Federal Courts? It likely wouldn't get very far. :sigh:
