Even in one position, my pulse rate seems really variable. How variable can ur pulse rate be? It's going from 70s to 90s and back again. On call cardio. said if my pulse using fingers was steady, I would be ok until morning.
When i stood up, it dipped way down, to 44. I drank a lot of water, and it steadied some, but i'm not dehydrated today.
There r more details, but i don't want to go on about this medical stuff.

I hope you're getting it checked by a Dr. tomorrow morning?

Have you checked your blood pressure?

Hi,

He said to it wasn't an emergency as long as it didn't vary largely from second to second, and he's going to put me on a holter monitor.

I was going to go out of town; the question is, do I go or do I stay?

I'm in the mountains, so it would be a lot hotter where I'm going.

Online love to everyone who has helped me. I wish I could visit some of you.

The traveling, if you can postpone your trip, would put more stress on your body, not to mention the heat as you said. I would "vote" for you to stay where you are if you can, at least until you have the Holter monitor.

Hugs to you too!! :-)

I'm going to stay put. Who wants to go down to a big, hot, hazy city anyway?

Thanks, Trav.
