I'm Alive!

As nobody knew (Including me), I had Ventricular Tachycardia for the last few years.

"Ventricular tachycardia (V-tach or VT) is a tachycardia, or fast heart rhythm that originates in one of the ventricles of the heart. This is a potentially life-threatening arrhythmia because it may lead to ventricular fibrillation and sudden death. Although less common, some forms of this arrhythmia appear benign, especially in young individuals."

That basically means that I have 3 nerves in my heart instead of 2, which sends out an irregularly fast blood pressure rate of 220 BPM, whereas the norm is 60-80.

Suddenly last month, I had to be rushed to the ER because my heart started beating extremely fast, and that was when I found out about my condition.

So yesterday I underwent an 8 hour surgery to burn this 3rd nerve off (Wearing scrubs is embarrasing!). I was told that doctors put tubes into veins in my thigh, led them up to my heart, and burned off the nerve using electricity… Its a good thing I was asleep, it mightve hurt 😀

Anyways, after the surgery, i felt horrible. I could barely walk around without feeling like throwing up. The male nurse told me that this was a normal reaction for patients after long surgeries; this was when i felt indignant towards shows like House, Scrubs, etc. They never show the after-effects of surgery!

Anyways, sorry for my un-mmorpg related blog, I just needed to blog something 😀
