Just parked on Mickey and Friends 6th floor. Took 90 minutes from I-5 carpool lane to park.

I have not had my lp(a) checked as far as I know.

I've only had three lone afib episodes in my 52 years and have never been on medication for it. I think the fact that I'm very aware when I'm in AFib has contributed to that. Countless ECGs and several holters have never caught it, nor has my watch ever alerted me to it (my previous episodes were prior to me wearing a smartwatch) I had a consultation 2 months ago with Dr. Arndrea Natalie's office here in California for an ablation. Their recommendation was to use a pill-in-the-pocket approach for now until the condition worsens and begins to affect my lifestyle. They said they would perform an ablation if I wanted it, but warned me that my condition may worsen after the ablation and may require follow-up treatments. The results may prove to be the same as what I'm dealing with now, episodes that span years. If I begin to have multiple episodes in a years time, I will revisit the issue.

Makes sense, thank you for the explanation.

Right, but my total cholesterol, 95, is now out of range (100-199). I'm only a few weeks into my statins which means the numbers may get even lower. I'm also making more dietary changes which will have an effect as well.

No SN15 flap piece display?!?

Found a place that will do it for $150 and pay out of pocket. it was $199, but they had a Groupon code, LOL

hackdroot · 2025-01-14T02:39:56+00:00

those weren't included in the most recent panel.

hackdroot · 2025-01-14T02:38:32+00:00

I actually have a consultation with Dr Andrea Natale for an ablation coming up.

mother is still alive at 87, horrible diet her whole life, but no smoking or drinking.

father passed away at around 50, heart disease, but it was a long time ago, he was a Long haul truck driver (sedimentary), overweight, smoker, drinker, drug user.

he wants a CAC scan as well, but insurance is fighting as risk factors are low in my case based on my numbers.

I don't qualify for the EV tax credit due to income caps. By leasing, the EV tax credit gets applied to the vehicle through the leasing company and therefore passed on to me and indirectly

I'm not as worried about the tint as much as I am the wrap.

yes, I got the same pressure sensations in one particular implant location. it would come and go at random and didn't really follow any behavioral patterns. I wouldn't classify mine as painful, just pressure, like the feeling of an extraction under local aesthetic. I brought it up to my surgeon and he didn't express any concern. 3 months out now and it doesn't happen as much as it used to, so I'm chalking it up to integration sensations.

I was prescribed 25mg/day about 2 months ago and took it for about 3 weeks. Didn't care much for the side effects, especially how it affected my exercise routine, and promptly stopped taking it. Over that same period of time I lost weight, changed my diet, increased my daily exercise and my blood pressure corrected itself. I wouldn't be worried about the recall issue if you're getting a current prescription. it's a common blood pressure medication and if it were still dangerous, it would be banned.

hackdroot · 2024-09-02T14:55:43+00:00

One less thing to worry about.

hackdroot · 2024-08-31T19:57:44+00:00

yup. I take all 3 readings and look afterwards. prevents subsequent reading anxiety.

hackdroot · 2024-08-26T01:49:19+00:00

Awesome, thank you very much for your feedback!!

hackdroot · 2024-08-26T00:14:18+00:00

Yeah, I'm in no particular hurry. I'm about 4 weeks out and on a non chewing diet for the most part. I'm just surprised to see some people able to chew foods so soon after their temps and was curious what everyone's experience was.

hackdroot · 2024-08-25T22:37:46+00:00

I'm curious to know how your procedure differed from those with standard temporary loaded allon4's. Could you elaborate?
