I had to switch to decaf a while ago because of my heart issues from #LongCovid
MORE SO before I got my new-onset #tachycardia treated with a beta-blocker
EVEN MORE SO when I was only on an albuterol from congenital asthma, while my asthma controller ratio is now in the range of Symbicort-Combivent
EVEN MORE SO before I got my manic bipolar/tx-resistant depression treated
BUT ESPECIALLY w the PTSD of my bipolar conservative Xtian X-roommate beating me
I call it #AsthmaticManicPanicAttacks

CW: Healthcare: dysautonomia, POTS, hypermobility disorders
This feels like a good segue to a health post. The fallout from my fracture in 2022 continues to yield insights about my health. Thankfully there’s been nothing frightening thus far.
When my hand rehab stalled I was referred to a hand specialist. In addition to my fracture I had also injured two ligaments, on opposite sides of my hand. A tiny bone in the wrist was tipped out of alignment. Some blood tests also revealed I was anemic! Even though all this was found, and treated, my hand’s recovery still dragged.
It was suggested that a rheumatologist review all my tests and assess me. In June 2023 I was pretty perfunctorily diagnosed with hypermobility spectrum disorder and fibromyalgia. I was told my PCP was equipped to treat me. A few months later a doctor in the university hospital system suggested dysautonomia might be part of the explanation. Having been hypermobile since childhood, and experienced my complaints about pain getting dismissed as “growing pains” or chided for “overdoing” at practice, I still think that fibromyalgia may have been with me for decades. I’m still trying to get a referral to the right neurologists.
In the meantime I started the long overdue rehab for my knee. I seriously injured it in high school during a casual, off-season game of water polo. My knee surgeon in the late 1980s told me the injury would come back to haunt me in middle age.
Although I’ve been amazed to discover I have no osteoarthritis in the joints imaged during the past few years, my right patella has lost all of its cartilage. I’ll need a patellar femoral replacement in the future. At night, when I stop moving, synovial fluid drains from the joint, leaving nothing to cushioning a patella that’s become like sandpaper! PT and a couple of different injection drug treatments are being tried in hopes it can buy me more time. I’m sure it’s also to make the case to my insurance that I really need a replacement covered.
My physical therapist is really great. He saw my hypermobility and Reynaud’s syndrome diagnoses and started to watch for evidence of dysautonomia because it’s often present with hypermobility disorders. After a few weeks of my jumping up from exertion in my lower body, only to feel a little dizzy and go pale, my PT said, “This is what mild POTS looks like! You definitely have dysautonomia.”
He went on to note that he’s put this detail in my chart to remind him to take a different approach so I’m not hit with post-exertional malaise for two days after PT. He said to keep pushing for a neurologist referral to get an “official” diagnosis, but he’s convinced and is teaching me to work with it.
I also noticed I’m experiencing mild tachycardia most days. Dinner and exciting, prestige TV often sets my heart to racing. I also feel like the bottom drops out if I push myself, ways I used to be able to push myself in more vigorous yoga classes and when I was training as a swimmer. Over the past couple of years of getting OT (hand therapy) and PT I’ve heard various versions of, “This is rehab not training!”
My PT has strongly advised me not to push if I’m even slightly nauseous. He shared that my tendency to feel nauseous is another sign my autonomic nervous system is not working properly. I been able to slowly increase my stamina, but still overdo it at PT, then need a day or two to recover.

I decided to try eating sprouted lentils again since I need a source of protein in my diet. I picked through some beluga lentils (my favorite) and was in the process of washing them when my FitBit buzzed to tell me 'You're earning zone minutes". I check the app and my HR had shot up to 155. My RHR is 59 and typically when I'm doing small chores my HR is 75-80. I'm thinking my husband is going to wind up eating the lentils.
Oh well (been saying that a lot lately).I wonder how much tachycardia is due to allergies?
~
On a more positive note, I noticed that after I had resumed daily meditation for a several days, my RHR has dropped 3 points. I have noticed this relationship on other occasions. I mostly do a combination of yoga nidra and metta. But meditation does not fix my allergies (maybe it makes them less severe - no way to know, really). -
@matdesgro I mean we all agree that lactate guided resuscitation is a dumb strategy. In RCT comparing #lactate guided vs #CRT guided, no difference was found. Then, CRT guided resuscitation is a dumb strategy
Just as any strategy based on the correction of clinical signs of #shock (#tachycardia, #hypotension, encephalopathy, #oliguria, crt, #molting, cutaneous temperature or lactate). This are signs of a syndrome, none of them is nor sensitive nor specific alone.

Wow, what a story!I've had SVT since age 11, but no atrial fibrillation or anything dangerous. In my case my heart rate always reverts to normal rhythm by itself, never had adenosine.😬
My version of SVT is not disabling or life threatening in any way -- I'm lucky! But SVT can be pretty exhausting when it happens.
Anyway, here's what my heart was doing on Sunday morning for about 15 minutes (screenshot from an ECG, 202 bpm)

#Doctors of The Fediverse, how serious is it if 2-3 hours after a workout your heartrate keeps spiking over 110bpm? Hypothetically. Like say if you were an early-40s diabetic man. And say you did an intense #HIIT workout, but every half hour or so afterwards - while watching TV - your heartrate jumps up and takes a while to settle?

Get rapid alerts for significant heart rate changes due to #POTS , #tachycardia , exercise or other activities.
Real-time HR alerts for HR #pacing.
From Michael Alexander @Michaeltikus on Twitter:
"For anyone who is using HR for pacing (and/or has POTs) - and you have an Apple Watch - you should check out WhipDev's free TachyMon app...

I've had Postural #tachycardia syndrome for years. I found out about the condition in 2020 after getting a pulse oximeter alert whilst waiting for the kettle to boil.
I've "always gotten light headed standing up". Headrushes upon standing up were "my thing". After Covid hit, I bought an oximeter and found that standing up caused my pulse rate to rise to 120bpm.
This wasn't the result of Long Covid, but something before March 2020. I had this problem already when the pandemic hit
Good news: today I did another simple ghetto tilt-table test, and my pulse only increased 5bpm upon standing up.
So my #POTS has finally gone! All it took was 3¼ years of staying healthy.

CW: Chronic illness humor, probably only funny to me
Two illnesses are bragging about the symptoms they cause.
POTS: Hi, I'm postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome! I can make someone's heart go really fast - 150 bpm - even while standing still!
SVT (supraventricular tachycardia): Hold my beer.

Adenosine has a wide range of clinical applications & it is used to treat a variety of conditions such as supraventricular #tachycardia and #AtrialFibrillation, chronic ischemic heart disease, #sleep disorders, and #stroke. Adenosine is also being studied in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, and #age-related diseases, and is being used as a #neuroprotectant agent. Adenosine is a promising agent in the development of #therapeutic strategies for a wide range range of conditions.

A Change of Pace
For almost four years I've been training very seriously as an endurance cyclist. The effects have been amazing: I lost over 30 kg/ 70 lb, reduced previously sky-high blood pressure, lipid and blood sugar numbers to the low end of the normal range, and transformed the way I feel about myself. All great things.
But now big changes are underway: I'm abandoning endurance training...
