Admitted back to hospital

Well I spent last night back in hospital (2 hours away from home). My fluttering heart never would stop and I got scared. Glad I came because they've gotten it under control and also became suspicious of a blood clot in my lungs. All that has checked out ok (thank God). Surgery was Monday and I thought I was doing so good. He said I'm not dehydrated but my magnesium was off. Hopefully this will be my only hiccup in the process.

I didn't do anything different that I can think of. I had this happen during my last pregnancy so dr thinks I may be having another spell of stress induced tachycardia. It's so darn uncomfortable, makes you scared and then that makes it worse!

Thank you! I just got home. It turns out that my potassium and magnesium were low. I also had an elevated level for blood clots- yikes! Thank God, no clots. I got infused with fluids all weekend and checked from one end to the other. I'm good to go and dying for the full liquid stage because hospital broth this weekend has just about done me in! I'm ready to get this show on the road. I'm going back to work tomorrow and ready to get in my routine.
