thanks! do you mind me asking how many beats per minute you have to endure, and for how long?

i have called "uncle" at 190, 240, and 250. longest i've waited for help is 2 hours. mine used to correct itself, but i have decided not to risk damage because in the summer of 2015, i developed congestive heart failure. i'm pleased to say that i may have licked that problem (meds and weight loss), but after putting off the ablation for 6 years i'm ready to try to get well. i've lost 54 pounds since january 2!

back to the car, yes, it was GREAT to move it forward, despite my inconveniences. i'm ready to get back in the garage!

My Tach can be uncomfortable...but it rights itself after a couple of hours.

I don't check rate or BP anymore.

My biggest problem is the healthcare system . As soon as they see Tach its code Red. I cant do a simple stress test without ending up admitted.

I'm glad your car is moving along.

well, after taking my car in on march 20, i finally got it back on june 23. for the most part, it's great! however, i would really only give it about an 8.2 out of 10. my driver's seat still seems to have a support issue, and there is a noticeable seam on the carpet on the hump (my bro-in-law is a carpet man, and i am oversensitized to installation issues). on the other hand, i got a really awesome upgrade on the package tray that i was not anticipating, so that part is quite impressive (padded vinyl instead of plain cardboard).

i learned long ago that if you are into c-bodies or 4 doors, you have to learn to live with improvisations...
