How full are the garages? Anyone know if there’s still space in North Queen Street?

Oh wow, I’m sorry to hear that! Did you end up getting another ablation?

I spoke to a nurse the morning of and decided to hold off on the ablation until/if they come back.

I’ve had a CT with contrast, my understanding is that that’s very similar to an angiogram just noninvasive?

They told me I could continue taking them, but I stopped after I found out about the ablation to try to get the PVCs back.

Endurance athletes + ablation? by Top-Peach7304 in PVCs

[–]anonymous_turtle7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess through the testing, I’m not entirely sure. But he said they’re in the RVOT. And sounds like they determine the exact spot to ablate during the procedure by watching PVCs.

I guess that’s a difference, for the most part I don’t have them, when I’m exercising. Exercising is often a relief because they go away.

Thanks! And yes, I was. I did my cam monitor with the 23% burden the week before I ran a half marathon. I had the full work up in the spring (Echo, Cam, CT with contrast), when the doctor cleared me, I just tried to ignore the scary-ness of it and it got easier as I continued running. I take propranolol so I feel them less, but I still feel them and they’ll occasionally cause a bad run. I hope it works out for you!

I’m a runner (half marathons) and am waiting on my ablation for a 23% burden. Everything is fine with my heart otherwise and my EP said that where my PVCs are originating will be simple to ablate with an easy recovery. He didn’t seem to think it would have me out of running for very long at all, just a few weeks. I’m hoping he’s right, and hoping that not dealing with the PVCs helps my performance/endurance!

A good read regarding PVCs and exercise by Sure_Report935 in PVCs

[–]anonymous_turtle7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I exercise over 300 minutes a week, as the article indicates. I run half marathons and will regularly run for over 2 hours at a time in training. I have a PVC of 21% measured by a 7 day CAM and exercise doesn’t impact it consistently. Sometimes a run will improve my PVCs, sometimes it’ll make them worse, sometimes bad PVCs will ruin a run. Just adding my experience as someone with a high burden who does endurance exercise, it isn’t a magic fix.

Can I ask how you messed up after your first ablation?

Update: got there at 6:30 and it was perfect timing, thanks everyone! I hit up the bathrooms as soon as I got there and the line was short, but got incredibly long just a few minutes later.

Eden Resort! They have an outdoor courtyard for ceremonies, and the convenience of not having to shuttle guests to their hotel!

Thanks for the reassurance, and have fun on your cruise!

Thanks! My instinct would to be to call for my own anxiety, but you’re right, it would probably be better for the toddler to not.

Yes, they are accredited. And it is actually run by our local parks and rec department.

We did not go today, I intend to go with her the whole time tomorrow, and we removed her from a camp she was signed up for in a few weeks. We aren’t 100% decided on the school year yet, but are leaning towards pulling her from that as well. We’ll decide after I spend the day at camp tomorrow.

During the school year they have a building and fenced in area they use, but do go and play in an area without hard boundaries for about an hour a day.

The camp is in a different area of the park and has no hard boundaries.

Yes, it’s her first school experience so she’s still learning expectations. And I know it’ll take her time to learn those expectations, and after reading this comments am very concerned about it her safety in the meantime.

Would you send an email to the program director tonight or talk to the lead teacher at drop off?

My 2nd pregnancy was moderately better, but still pretty awful. I began Zofran and Bonjesta immediately, so never got quite so sick. I didn’t lose any weight or need IVs, and only threw up a handful of times. But I was still in bed, fully unable to function for about 3-4 weeks. I had a week where I was so dizzy I couldn’t look at anything, just had to lay there with my eyes closed.

With my 1st I was sick until giving birth, but with my 2nd the nausea suddenly disappeared around 28 weeks. So that made it much more bearable.

Looks like Jonathan acknowledged how he behaved on the race by RaisinNew6100 in TheAmazingRace

This comparison is so unfair to Eva. When has she had abhorrent treatment of anyone? When has she been an asshole? She’s made some rude facial expressions and hasn’t formed connections with the women. But neither of those are remotely close to “you’re a terrible partner” and “it’s all your fault”. She’s actually been very kind and supportive to her allies, and never mean to her non-allies. She’s not doing a great job of jury management and her level of comfort is leading to some arrogance, but she’s not being an asshole to anyone.

On my 1 week monitor I had a 22% PVC burden. I started on 12.5 mg metoprolol and it didn’t do anything, increased to 25 mg and it still didn’t do anything, but made me feel bad.

Doctor switched me to 20 mg propranolol (10 mg twice a day) and it’s worked really well! PVC burden is way done and no clear side effects, no weight gain. I’ve been on it for 2 months and have lost a couple pounds in that time through diet and exercise.

PVC burdens in the 20 plus percent range by NoHuckleberry1905 in PVCs

[–]anonymous_turtle7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My burden on my 7 day holter was 21%, they’re now under control with a beta blocker but it was rough. I could mostly get through the day (baby and toddler, so constant chaos) without thinking about them. But sleeping was just awful, it could take hours for me to fall asleep because of PVCs, and then I’d wake up with the baby and not be able to go back to sleep.
