My heart rhythm had them stumped for hours! After 677 days my AFIB strikes back! Or something else?

2 years ago

Recounting my experience in ER at hospital this week with very unusual heart rhythms that had the doctors stumped for hours on how to proceed to treatment.

And how my exercising may have saved my life!

And how did this then lead to anaphylactic shock??
