I got woken up this morning at 5 a.m. by my dh calling my name..>LOUDLY. He has a history of atrial fibrillation and cardiac arrhythmias and is on meds for it. Apparently he had an episode this morning in the shower where he felt like his heart beat was going to knock him down, so he took his meds and some aspirin and got lightheaded and dizzy...said he couldn't even walk. SO I had to call EMS and we were at the hospital for the past 4 hours.

Turns out , he has had a pretty bad case of bronchitis and all the coughing and congestion caused his a. fib to flare up and he had a spell. He's okay now, he had some drugs in the ER and came home with about 4 prescriptions. I just think it was his evil plot to wake me up super early and keep me from scrapping

So what'd I miss this morning? LOL All the challenges start today and i'm starting out behind cause now I have to work dang it! I'm gonna go check out what the new week brings us :)
 
It HAS happened before..3 other times. But only one of those was really bad. The very first time it happened, they had to shock him twice in the ambulance to get a semi decent rhythm, and his rate was over 200 beats per minute. He's only 36 years old..dude needs to quit the cigarettes and beer and this probably wouldn't happen so much! but I do feel sorry for him and it does scare me when it happens. I'm glad he's safely upstairs in our bed snoozing away and not in the hospital, no matter how much I nag him :)
 
WOW! So not a fun way to start the day! I am glad your DH is OK Amy! Sorry you can't scrap and have to work I'm with ya there as I have to work too! :(
 
My goodness, how scary! And all you could think of was starting late on these challenges?! :eek: Bwahahahaha! You so crazy! :D I hear you on having to come to work though, sucks to be here when I could be scrapping! :rolleyes:
 
{{{HUGS}}} I would be in a panic! So glad that he's ok and hoping he kicks this bronchitis.
