I find this very interesting. I find it particularly interesting how tachycardia is not actually a medical condition, just a term for a rapid heart rate. I also find it interesting how none of the medical disorders related to tachycardia (POTS, CFS, etc) have anything to do with body heat. I find it most interesting how you claim to have danced for 8 hours straight while most people with serious heart conditions would probably have trouble even standing up for more than one.
Oh, and I also find it interesting how your gfs write exactly like you do.
I guess you're just one of those special cases. |
Now this is comming from someone that attends the faculty of medicine...
First off, nutman, yes she is a special case. about 2 out of every 10,000 people are affected by this disorder.
Also, she is completely correct in saying that she suffers from "episodes."
ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) are both arrhythmias or in your words "just rapid heart rate(s)" are responsible for most of the sudden cardiac deaths that occur. these attacks are not normally fatal, but very well can be. they cannot in most cases be prevented and have nothing to do with trouble standing up, walking around, or sometimes even running a 10k...they are electronic problems inside the heart.
why are you attacking a victim?? if someone had cancer would you bash on them too? post your pic so people can punch you in the face when they see you at clubs.
partyprincess, have you considered this?
