Ever since covid, I’ve had all kinds of weird symptoms, especially with my heart. Well, yesterday I was in the hospital for an endoscopy — and my heart stopped. It didn’t sound like a big deal when the anesthesiologist told me about (I was still kind of loopy from the drugs), but an hour or so later, I looked it up: happens 1-5 patients per 10,000.
When the surgeon walked by, I grabbed him. “Tell me about this,” I told him.
He said it was only for a few seconds, he suspects it was a parasympathetic response to the procedure, but it’s not normal. They gave me a printout of the EKG to show my cardiologist and suggested further testing.
I blame Trump, or covid. Same thing!
