luckyknickers57 62 Posted April 29, 2014 Yeah BettyGirl, I'm 48lbs down already, plus what I can do over the next two weeks, yahhhh. I was in bed this morning and husband was cooking toasted bacon sandwiches...... normally this wouldn't bother me, but today, first day of the milk diet, well. So I sent him a text..... he answered in a way that made sense, but I just didn't want to hear, like oh' think of the changes.... the rest of your life..... small steps.... I of course responded with SHUT UP!!!!!! Poor man, and this is only the first day..... So, I had my yummy Breakfast, a glass of milk, and a lovely, crunchy multi Vitamin, mmmmmmm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bettygirl 9 Posted May 2, 2014 It was in Af rhythm(abnormal heart beat) for about 30hrs, they were getting ready to shock my heart back into normal rhythm but the medication they had been pumping into me finally kicked in a few hours before as after 48hrs your at risk of blood clot from it but after maintaining a normal rhythm for 6hrs I was discharged on meds for 6 more weeks and have to see a cardiologist to follow up as it shouldn't have really happened to me at my age and with no underlying issues so they think I may have had an underlying heart issue so best I get checked by a cardiologist from now on anyway, I'm all good now though and should stay that way x x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My friend has that. She has lived with it for years. She is very sensitive to medication and has an under active thyroid too and the meds can set it off when the thyroid does it's silly things that it wants to. So yeah, I know how scary it can be, and she gets really tired at times. Poor you, hopefully the cardiologist will sort you out and keep you well. Good luck to you luv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
