Today’s EP Tele-health appointment

I’m grateful that I have such a good relationship with my EP. We had a phone catch up today and he reassured me that there was no AF on the recent Kardia tracing I’d sent through (which was 135 bpm and said “possible AF”). He said there were runs of atrial bigeminy then a run of atrial tachycardia then more bigeminy. So all very harmless, even if it was uncomfortable for a few hours. He has decided to bring my next appointment with him forward so I’ll see him in August.

We had a good chat about COVID19. He said there are 78 different vaccines in development around the world and 4 going to clinical trials very soon so fingers crossed we’ll be able to get our life a back one day soon.

Good news Kaz. I know about atrial tachycardia! Not pleasant. Keep safe.

It all sounds positive Kaz - here’s hoping for an effective vaccine.

Hopefully now that you have spoken to him and have a clearer picture of what is happening your stress levels will reduce somewhat, although I think time may drag between now and August! Having a good relationship with someone in charge of your medical care is priceless. Stay well.
