Life with eCardio

The bright side is that I'm not in the hospital anymore! So woo hoo to that tid bit of news! My release was conditional though. In order to be released I had to agree to wear a lovely heart monitor for the next thirty days. Oh yes - that's no typo, I said 30 days!!! The reality is that they seem to believe whatever is going on with my heart and these episodes of syncope & dizziness are nothing to sneeze at. So, this is what needs to happen to monitor my heart and treat the problem. I can get behind that.

Not without a little humor though. :)  Seriously, let me describe this lovely thing. It's like a mini fanny pack or those fabulous man-satchels you see on all the most fashionable hips with cell phones secured safely in place. I feel like Robo-Cop with all the freaky wires protruding from my body. I mean come on, this thing is something to behold & I get to enjoy it for thirty days. Then, to make it even funnier, when my heart does decide to be bizarre or "have and event" as the doctors prefer to say, this crazy alarm goes off that makes Jackson bury his head! It's quite comical!

Anyhow, today is only day three with my friend eCardio. I'm sure the next 27 days will be filled with fun times, great memories, and most importantly (hopefully) good medical information.
