Well once again I am being forced to slow down. Over the weekend on my second rest day from doing a fb program I had an incident which ended up with me being in the emergency department at the hospital. What happened was I suddenly got faint and woozy and my heart rate skyrocketed from normal resting to 169 just like that. It was very scary and now after many tests and checks it was deemed that it was an episode of sinus tachycardia of unknown cause (very high heart rate. at rest). So I am not allowed to do workouts (gentle walking ok). In a weeks time I will be reviewed again but am on meds to keep my heart rate stable. It's so hard when you feel like you are doing the right things for your health and something beyond your control happens. I think that's what I also found hard, that this was all beyond my control and I just had to stop everything in that moment basically. I know many of you have been knocked out from workouts due to all kinds of reasons and I'm really working on just accepting it. Anyone else currently forced into an exercise hiatus? moral support welcome :) 🤗 💓 wishing good health to you all.
Health issues and workouts
Hello FB family,
Well once again I am being forced to slow down. Over the weekend on my second rest day from doing a fb program I had an incident which ended up with me being in the emergency department at the hospital. What happened was I suddenly got faint and woozy and my heart rate skyrocketed from normal resting to 169 just like that. It was very scary and now after many tests and checks it was deemed that it was an episode of sinus tachycardia of unknown cause (very high heart rate. at rest). So I am not allowed to do workouts (gentle walking ok). In a weeks time I will be reviewed again but am on meds to keep my heart rate stable. It's so hard when you feel like you are doing the right things for your health and something beyond your control happens. I think that's what I also found hard, that this was all beyond my control and I just had to stop everything in that moment basically. I know many of you have been knocked out from workouts due to all kinds of reasons and I'm really working on just accepting it.
