Afib Rider

This site has always been about my experiences with Atrial Fibrillation as a Rider/Racer. I had Catheter Ablation done in August 2009 and,except for the occasional blip, remained pretty much in NSR until January of 2018. This is when I had my second ablation done.Then I had a third one done in July 2018. And a 4th touch-up ablation in July 2019. So now it will be about my recovery and return to full-on cycling again. You will also be entertained buy my occasional rants on daily life.....Enjoy.

Al ls Well

Nothing earth shattering on the heart front. Still taking the Flecanide,metoprolal, and magnesium. Heart hasn't missed a noticeable beat in a while now. Should be getting the event monitor in the next couple weeks. I'm hoping it will allow for me to still where my HRM when exercising.

UGH

As you may or may not know I am a control room operator at a power plant and to say that the last 7 days were the worst would be an understatement. Both units were off for repairs and we ended up putting them both back on line over the past several days. One of them twice.

The physical stress in the control room is marginal at best but the mental strain creates a different type of tired for sure. And you don't even realize it until you get home and hits you like a ton of bricks.
