@lioness. I'm ok. Still having problem with my hip bursitis and keg pain etc. Had my 2nd Moderna Saturday at Disneyland. On Saturday my arm was very sore, bp also high, no surprise there. On Sunday, I had low grade temperature under 100, bp still high. This morning I had a fright, my heart rate was out of control, went up to 130 just lying in bed. My daughter told me to use Kardia, and it showed possible Afib... That really scares me. Put a call to my cardiologist office. They finally called back, they are going to check what my loop recorder (an implant to check for irregular HR) says, and they will let my doctor know. Since then, my bp came back down. Hope this is just reaction to the vaccine. It's been just over a year since I have the loop recorder and never did it show anything wrong. Ugh.
Hope you are well. Have you got the vaccine yet? Take care.

@mayofeb2020 Glad you are o.k. Yes I got the Pfizer and on 22 will get my 2nd one I hope you will be alright maybe it's just a reaction to the 2nf dose.Im going to reach out to my cardiologist I had a triple ny pass in 1996 and just recently walking up a small grade I started with s.o.b. Of course 2mask so hoping that was it. I was considering getting a Kardia how do you like yours and where did you get it? Glad I'm in CA with east weather

@lioness My cardiologist office called back. I had to manually upload the data from my loop recorder monitor and send it to them. They just called back and said they didn't see anything irregular. She actually went back to last February since I had it implanted and noticed nothing to worry about. My daughter said they would have been notified as soon as I have the afib. Her husband used to have afib, but no more, so she is kind of knowledgeable on that front. I think Amazon sells the Kardia. My cardiologist knows about it and approves it. I don't use it everyday. But like my American Express card, I never leave home without it.
