How My Mom’s Heart Condition Came to Light

October 21st, 2008

Last week my parents were driving back to orange county from Las Vegas when my mom told my father,who was driving, that her heart was feeling funny. When my dad asked my mom what she meant by funny she told him it felt like her heart was running away. Her heart eventually got back to normal;however my dad pulled into the first hospital he could find. In the emergency room my mom was examined and told she had an arrhythmia and needed to see her regular doctor upon returning home. I believe my dad drove way above the normal speed limit the rest of the way home

Yesterday I was exercising at my gym when all of a sudden I felt a shortness of breathe and I came very close to fainting. Being completely scared,yet being the kind of guy I am, I waved off the staff and told them I was okay. When someone suggested I had a heart attack I just laughed it off. Once I felt I could get up without staggering, I made a hasty exit to my car and immediately drove to my doctors office. After explaining what happened to me my doctor told me he believed I had an arrhythmia. He then scheduled some tests immediately.
