I don’t know what that is so… no?

An echocardiogram of your heart. To check for thrombi

Oh yeah nope. So glad that I didn’t have a stroke

Is the sotalol keeping you out of afib?

1/25/23 8:01pm

Yes, but it's more like I'm not playing ball as hard as I used to.

Interesting

Glad you got it checked out!! A stroke is a real possibility with afib.

1/25/23 8:03pm

Glad you’re ok. Why did the ER do it? We’re you getting unstable?

Good question. Just wanted to get my heart back in rhythm?

1/25/23 9:19pm

Maybe they trust your Apple Watch but before they cardiovert, they often will do a TEE.

Dr MoBYU

They did a couple ekg there that showed aflutter 4 1 block and I had felt it all

1/25/23 10:14pm

Dr MoBYU

1/26/23 6:14am
