hoping for good results

Well yesterday I went and saw my EP. My ICD check revealed what was anticipated, increase # of episodes of AT and also increasing duration :< Resting HR alone was 120 in the office. We talked a bit and although my options at this time are very limited, we are going to admit me to the hospital and try tykosin again. I am a tad nervous as last time I was on this medication I had my device fire several times. But also in saying that I am looking at the brighter side that it did give some relief last time and heck if torsades happens again I have my trusty friend to help me out. My kiddos are worried, especially my 16 year old, as since December I have been declining and she hates it when I am away. All I hope for is just a little functional quality of life back.
