Okay, so an update on my heart. Started drinking coffee again and finally my PVCs came back. Recorded a few good ones on my monitor. Stopped drinking coffee. Still having PVCs. But now they have a hard time getting up in the morning and have less energy during the day. Oh wait, that's me.
I think in an earlier post I mentioned something about wearing the monitor for "a few days." Well, make that 30 days. Seems a little excessive to me, but what do I know? I'm just a doctor. A doctor withdrawing from caffeine. A doctor withdrawing caffeine who just had to type C-A-F-F-E.... in the little google toolbar because she couldn't remember how to spell it. Lord help me. Isn't there some sort of caffeine substitute? Other than meth?
Anyway...so I get to wear my monitor for another two weeks. And I'm starting to feel a little self conscious when I go out in public and have an EKG sticker stuck to my chest with a conspicuous wire attached to a black box on my belt. I look like either I'm dying or I'm a suicide bomber....or a dying suicide bomber. Is that redundant?
Okay, it's late and my brain stopped functioning sometime in March.
Word to your mother.
