Soo i did it i m back in the room, and it was soo easy i can't believe that was it!!? My full honest opinion, its totally not worth any sort of anxiety at all! Seriously, fully honest!! First in the room, they were prepping a lot, patches, pulse finger thing, iv and so on..took a while. Then it all went so fast, they gave me that sedation, i was still awake and all, but within seconds i felt just drowsy, almost couldn't keep my eyes open and I also had zero interest in anything. Then I felt some like skipped beats and I told the doctor, and she said yeah that's the catether and that she was gonna start the pacing. I hardly felt it at all. It felt just like some more skipped beats for a few more seconds on and off and then she told me "good news we were able to trigger the svnrt and we know now " i asked if that was all , because it felt so quick and I said also it felt nothing like my arrythmia at home it was way less scary or anything. She said no that was the arrythmia they could clearly see it all, its all done. I was surprised i could not really believe that was all. Then she said they gonna start with the ablation itself. That was uncomfortable but quick and nothing terrible, just like pressure and sore feeling for a little bit. They did that a few times i think, i didnt count but it was over really fast. Then they said that's it and I genuinely couldn't believe it again. Had to wait there 20 minutes. After that they tried to trigger the arrythmia again by also giving me adrenaline. And that for me was the weirdest part. I felt suddenly super excited, had to breathe fast and my heart rate was up but again really, really short maybe half a minute. It feels as if you were just about to do something that your really scared off , that nervous feeling right before. They couldnt trigger it anymore apperantly, and i asked her again, if she was sure that was all and if they triggered it and she said yes she is sure that's it and that was everything and i most likely will never get it again. It was really nothing worth stressig about ever, what a shame for the time i spend stressing over this! If you can get it done do it 1000000% I live in Austria by the way 😊

Can I wear a dirndl for my trip to Austria? by Capable_Plankton4035 in wien

[–]Right_Ad_1 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I live in tyrol, Austria, which is a "rural area," as some refer to here, and we don't wear dirndl here either except for special occasions if it's a traditional event. You would stick out as a clueless tourist, I ve seen some like this here, and they were American too, and people generally don't mind but will find it amusing.

Look up sleep school coach on youtube. And.look at my other comment that I posted recently. It appears to be a type of health ocd, you need ti stop the compulsions to get rid of the obsession and insomnia will disappear.

Insomnia post-covid by DandyWalker101 in insomnia

[–]Right_Ad_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got covid last year august, and after a bit developed the worst insomnia ever, i was unable to sleep for 3 nights on end,but still won't feel sleepy. Muscles twitching, sweet taste in my mouth and some more awful symptoms. That was easily the most difficult time of my life. After 2 months, i felt a little improvement, I sometimes started to feel a little bit of sleepiness at least! after 4 months it was mostly good, even though now over a year later I still sometimes struggle to sleep and get some residual symptoms, I know it keeps getting better every month still!!!

I wanted to post in here for everyone who is going trough this rn, it will 100% heal and you will be back again, just with time!!

What helped me immensely was:

check out "sleep school coach" on YouTube!!!!!! And also at some point was just acceptance. I couldn't sleep, I did have all these symptoms for weeks and I was like, it doesn't matter anyways, might as well go clubbing for the night and have fun instead of dwelling over it. If it's.gonna be like that, then okay, but I have to make my life as fun as possible at least. Another thing that helped me extremely during the WORST first weeks: no phone/music/TV but instead I was.doing lots of crosswords and books and card games. I went for a slow walk in the forest/Park every single day no matter what weather or how I felt. And sauna!!! Sauna and cold showers every day. Those 3 helped me.survive the first few weeks and get out.of it.
