Heart Palpitations and Tachycardia

[SFR]

Anyone ever have this? I am on sick leave until it gets figured out.....

If you're serious.... which I doubt....

 

[SFR]

Well, I am serious. I am out on med until I get it figured out. I can either do medicine or an ablasion procedure (which I am scared of that).

Curious if any other pilots have had this and how they dealt with it.

BTW, I like LOST too!

A cadiac ablation doesn't sound fun.


Check out www.lostpedia.com and www.darkufo.blogspot.com

Good fan sites.

On darkufo.blogspot.com - look for Vozzek69 posts. Very insightful and lucid theories on each episode.

I have not dealt with them,(luckily) but it looks like they are highly prepared/knowlegable and can get you back up asap for just about most things.

I have the site tagged as a favorite just in case.

I had an EP Study and a Heart Cath during the past 3 months... All is OK except my ticker is just not pumping too well..
Heart Palps are mostly externally related Stress/Diet/Alcohol/Caffeine
Tachycardia can really be helped by exercise/medicine

Funny you should ask about Palpitations and Tachycardia I am spending my second night in the hospital while I undergo test. The good news is my stress test showed no heart problems. They gave me a beta blocker today. I am trying to find out if tachycardia treated with beta blocker is acceptable for 2nd class medical. I would love some advice from anyone that has been in mine or SFR's position...

You can get a special issuance for a 1st class medical if your condition is controlled my approved medicine...
I am on my second Issuance in 3 years

Hey encorepilot,

Have they figured anything out yet?

it's 90 days after you get an ablation to reapply for your medical
