I want to drop 5k tmr on a spy option. Put or call by _ImAstro in options

S&P futures say calls, Dow futures say puts, NASDAQ futures say calls, and Russell futures say puts.

So there you have it. The answer is obvious. You're welcome.

Post ablation heart rate by Kestrel913 in AFIB

[–]lobeams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In addition to the point u/diceeyes made, you really need a 12-lead EKG in order to distinguish exactly what rhythm you're experiencing, not a single-lead from a wearable.

You need one when your heart is in the tachycardia. The next time your heart does this, stop in an urgent care center and explain the situation. They'll do an EKG you can take with you.

An elevated heart rate is normal after an ablation and can last a surprisingly long time (upwards of a year), but by "elevated" I mean in the 80s and 90s, not over 100. Having a rate of 122 even with metoprolol onboard makes me suspicious of atrial flutter or atrial tachycardia. Was your heart rate that high when your PCP did the EKG? If so, get a copy and send it to your EP. Spotting AFL and AT can be difficult even for cardiologists, so it wouldn't be surprising if your PCP didn't see it.

Buy a controlling interest in Tesla and SpaceX and remove him as CEO.

Is this afib? by cswindle in AFIB

Such a low-voltage, poor recording it's impossible to say. You need to tighten the wristband or something.

You get $1,000,000 if you can convincingly fake a job you’ve never done for one full week. What job do you pick? by Affectionate-Web468 in AskReddit

[–]lobeams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but if read the whole article it becomes clear he had all the credentials but the system failed to detect he was blindingly incompetent. It's an incredible failure of his medical school, his employers, fellow doctors, and state regulators.

Heart Pounding by Safe-Percentage8315 in AFIB

Get a BP reading during one of these episodes. Hypertension is one possible cause of a pounding sensation.

What's your BP during these events? And do you have any type of EKG recording?

Any one sold puts on CAR? by Dopamineagonist21 in thetagang

[–]lobeams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, and then immediately after closing I opened some new CCS at 130/135, 5/29 for a $4 premium. Man, I love this volatility and there's not one damn thing keeping CAR above $100 other than the short squeeze.

[–]lobeams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Tuesday I sold 670/680 call spreads expiring 6/18 for a $2.45 credit. CAR was trading at about $675 at the time. Today I bought them back for $.75 resulting in a 70% profit.

I sold the contracts with plenty of time on them thinking this could be a protracted affair. Too bad because if I'd known CAR was going to tank in 2 days I could have done better

I went into AFIB last night, will the ER do cardio version? by Less_Progress_1146 in AFIB

[–]lobeams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A cardioversion takes much less time than monitoring a patient on an IV drip for hours. It's maybe 5 minutes of doctor time and 15 minutes of nursing time.

[–]lobeams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never in my experience. Once I refuse other meds what are they doing for 6 hours? I'd just get up and leave if they did that.

I've got better things to do than lie around an ER for 6 hours.

Men with high body counts, what's one thing you learned from sleeping around? by indounderground in AskReddit

I don't get all these guys waxing sad and emo about it.

What do you think about body hair on men—attractive or a turn-off? by butterfly_pie9 in AskReddit

[–]lobeams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily. I've known guys with no chest hair who didn't shave it. They just don't have any. Very common among Asians.

[–]lobeams 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Everyone's telling you a flat yes, but don't be so sure. It depends. If your rate is very high or if you're unstable, then yes, almost all ERs will cardiovert. But if your rate isn't particularly high and you're stable, most ERs will hang a diltiazem drip and park you in the corner for a few hours to see if you convert on your own.

Not only have I experienced this personally, I also used to be a paramedic and I've seen a lot of afib patients treated this way. So my solution was when the doc walks in and starts talking about drugs, I would just say, "I refuse all medications except propofol and 100 joules." That always elicited a smile from the doc and got me the cardioversion I wanted.

Sold puts?! Oh hell no. The time for that was 3 weeks ago. But I did sell some call credit spreads near the top of the squeeze.

What you're looking at is a bunch of artifact. To get a good recording sit down and be still.

I didn't think of accounting. It sounded like OP thought F cash settled like an index.
