Thought we could all convene here after our Feb sx so we could stay in touch....

I was very dehydrated

I went to ER on Thursday night. They pumped in 2 bags of IV fluids

I feel so much better!

My heart rate is still low' date=' but doing pretty good getting liquids in again.

I don't know why, the further I get dehydrated, the harder it is to get in my liquids.

I have a followup today with my family dr and I go to the cardiologist next friday. I am anxious to see what the holter monitor showed.

While I was at the ER, the monitor kept going off because my heart rate was too low[/quote']

I am glad to hear you are doing better. I hope you can get some answers from the cardiologist about your slow heart rate. You may need to find a cardiac specialist called an Electrphysiologist. They specialize in the heart's electrical system. Most cardiologists are plumbers rather than electricians! LOL! Keep working on staying hydrated. It's your job now!

I am so excited....I am no longer morbidly obese!!!! WOOO HOOO! I haven't been under 40 BMI for at least 20 years! OK world, watch out, because here I come!!!

Ever since the weathe started getting hotter I've been getting sick from being out side. I drink plenty of fluids but still seem dehydrated

Is anyone else having problems like that?

I'm finding I need A LOT more Water now that the weather is hotter.
