Your narrowing pulse pressure- the 15 point difference between your systolic and diastolic B/P should be brought to your team’s attention if you haven’t already. It can mean your heart is having trouble pumping enough to supply O2 to your body. If you’re feeling lightheaded or woozy please sit and let them know. Stay safe & good luck.

@babheart Great to know- Thanks!

@babheart My Wife got us a “Oxymeter Device. That little clamp like thing that they use at the Doctors Office. Goes on a finger. Measures HR and Blood Oxygen. I’m getting Blood oxygen readings in the 95-96 range.
My Doctor has me on AMIODARONE and it seems to be bringing me HR down a bit.
Does it also reduce the irregular rhythm as well? Thanks.
