Poll question: Least favorite type of cardiac arrhythmia?
I think AV blocks completely bite. Well, the first degree ones aren't so bad, but I'm about ready to pop a Mobitz these days at the other ones. I feel like I'm under the third degree. :crazy:

Ok, back to the f*ckign grindstone. :grr:

5. That'll be cake after this.
I get to analyze and interpret this stuff now for work. I'm having minor blocks with the blocks. :P

8. That's not a very complete list
For instance, no Ectopics.

Benign (usually), but pretty to look at in any montage.

I did EEG and PSG work for about ten years. It's second-nature now. But working in medicine these days just plain sucks, and I'm too old for medical school at this point.

Oh, well ...

--p!

9. The worst part is the cuomodine
the drug they give you to keep your blood from clotting.

I'd been taking it for about four months when I noticed my urine was a bright, shiny red. Called the doc and told her no way was I taking any more of that crap.

She told me to take an aspirin a day instead.

WTF?
