Re: “Had several heart palpitations on way here which kinda scared me a little.”
If you ever have palpitations / arrhythmia that don't quickly end, you MAY be able to knock them back into rhythm by "bearing down" on your chest - holding your breath and knotting up your stomach as if you're trying to make your face turn red. It sometimes works. I suggest you discuss this with your doctor since, for all I know, there may be more than one kind of arrhythmia and what I just said might be dangerous. I only know that my wife was told to do this and it works for her.

Lingering arrhythmia can lead to clots and strokes. Take it seriously. If you have an IRREGULAR arrhythmia, after five minutes an ambulance may be appropriate.

I had an episode during my 2019 angiogram. I never felt a thing, but they kept me in the hospital to monitor the arrhythmia while trying to put together a team to do a cardioversion. They couldn't get a team together that day and, after seven hours, normal rhythm returned on its own. Arrhythmia is no joke.

Hello!

Made it to the hotel. Evansville is a growing small city in the southwest corner of Indiana alongside the Ohio River which is over a mile wide here.

The riverfront is really nice here and the people are as well. I could see myself residing here were it not for some Indiana tax laws.

Had several heart palpitations on way here which kinda scared me a little.
That was a first. Hopefully a last as well.

I'll just stay out of the fray over the imaginary three ton person or thing Sir Wizard keeps pointing out to you as being the romantic interest of yer life...

Iffen ya see it in your neighborhood or area locale
RUN. HIDE. Go into the pond and burrow in the mud.

After this drive down here I have some decisions to make as it scared me when I thought I may be starting another heart attack. Its in tough shape as it is and is no longer red in color. Its a darkish color gray. It also does not pump as much volume as is normal either.

So when I start feeling pains in that area under my chest wall and ribs I get nervous really fast.

I have to decide if I want to keep on doing this or not. I don't need the money but I like to stay busy. I also have discovered I like naps in the afternoon on my recliner.

Such is life. Will have to give it some thought....
