Heart Problems... usually means Cardiac Ablation! not happy about it, but... Check

During PT and OT I'd get my vital check and once in a while I'd have my heart rate a little high and some times a little low. Not to mention my blood pressure that was just dang right LOW sometimes and couldn't do crap. That wasn't until one day I'm rolling myself into the clinic and I get my pulse check and it's in the 160s HOLY CRAP they all just look at me and tell me how do I feel I'm like fine nothings wrong why? They show me the monitor I'm like well I feel fine... Right away they are like no we can't work out your going to get sick I'm like guys really I'm fine...NOPE they start calling every doctor they can first my Cardio nothing no answer he is busy, next Dr. C. my asthma doc she's like if she feels fine go for it, they are still not convinced they call my PCP Dr. B. total trip killer!!!

Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy... Check!

Now comes the topic of PT and OT from before... This all happened in 2011 to 2012...
