I need an Instagram break so I stop mindlessly looking at stories.

I love love love seeing your lives every day on stories and feeling connected, but it’s getting distracting and is also really easy to hyper focus on. When it’s late and I’m high, I get into this “must finish all stories” gamification mode and it is annooooying me.

So I’m going to delete Insta from my phone today at some point. Will still check it on my computer.

So no stories from me for a few days, maybe a week if I can hack it. And no judgment if I fail miserably and only last a day, haha.

I’ve got some big tasks and realignments of life to do and I need to remove distractions, at least temporarily. But I promise I still want to hear how you are, so feel free to message me and keep me in the loop if you like.

Will still be accessible via FB, Twitter, and phone. And likely still here via DM on my laptop.

You can probably expect a week load dump of stories when I return so apologies in advance!

And if anything BIG DEAL happens, I’ll probably come back and tell you. Or maybe I won’t! Who knows how my brain will handle this. 😅 — nympsam

People have been asking why I have to wear a heart monitor for two weeks. I have a new cardiologist as my last one didn’t even know what POTS is. (One of my two heart conditions, the other being heart block).

He does work with my pacemaker clinic, but wanted to gather data about exactly why my heart is beating fast sometimes.

It can be both POTS but also pacemaker mediated tachycardia. Remember the clinic made the changes last time without my knowledge or consent, thinking it was PMT, and messed me right up.

The monitor has a button so, anytime I have an “event”, like my heart rate stays at 130 for half an hour doing nothing, I can record that and explain what was happening. This can’t be done just with pacemaker records.

So even though being covered in wires and stickers for two weeks, and not being able to shower properly for the next three days (hello sponge bath nurse?), I’m happy to be wearing this annoying thing if it means I’ll be working with a doctor who is actually listening to me and looking at the data collaboratively.

My only concern is that I’ve been given a prescription for beta blockers and I think it makes sense to only start them *after* this two weeks, so the readings are more accurate to what I’ve been dealing with. Maybe though, now that I’m thinking it, I’ll do a week not on them, and the 2nd week on them. That would likely be a good experiment for the records!

Anyway. That! I’m completely fine. We’re not looking for anything new. My problems aren’t life threatening or getting worse at all. Simply collecting data and then I see him to discuss in January. 🥰 — nympsam
