Thanks. And apparently not knowing your heart rate is astronomical is not as uncommon as one might think

SD, my husband had this issue. The called it SVT supraventricular tachycardia. They used an IV medication to bring it down. A couple times they also pushed another med (sorry, can’t remember the names) and waited for a pretty immediate response. They had the crash cart ready to use to shock his heart into normal rhythm if the meds weren’t working (fortunately they did).

The plan was that he would have cardiac ablation down the road. We never got that far because of the Covid though.

My father had cardiac ablation at one point for a different cardiac issue. It did improve things.

I hope your dad responds and they find a solution for the tachycardia. It’s a lot. Keep us updated.

And the stupidity of "no upsetting topics" or "you have to warn them when sensitive topics are coming up -thing is a hill I will die on - attorneys have to handle upsetting info - if you are too damn delicate then go be something else.
I’ve got a kid this semester who is triggered by dolphins. As it is an ancient history course we do in fact see some dolphins in art and on coinage. I changed the art slide, but for the coin I passed them off as fish.

Sorry about your dad. My Apple Watch once flagged my heart rate as high when I certainly didn’t notice it. One watch and over three years later, it still has a record of it.

Must have been all that therapy teaching you to be calm.
