Question: Afib mostly at night
just had an attack went to ER,
panic attacks go with the afib, before or after it, not sure.
low potassium 3.4
polyuria
low spot/ast 12
low sgpt/alt 24
high globulin 3.5
high monocytes 9.3
high esophiles 8.0
high basophils 2.1
high #eos .6
high ventricular rate 110 to 140
calcium channel blocker was used
ventricular rate 80 to 100 in 10 min
ventricular rate XXXXXXX again in 2 hrs
told doc felt dyhydrated from all the urination, also ask for something for the anxiety
gave me 500ml IV, more calcium channel blocker, and ativan
converted in 10 min
was on beta blockers now on cal channel blockers
never any diuretics
I watch my sodium intake and eat 2-3 bananas or oranges a day and
supplementing with about 700 mg of potassium 3 x day prior to this
attack of afib, that why I don't get the low potassium.
I am thinking
hyperaldosteronism, would explain low potassium, polyuria,
high blood pressure.
asthma was under control during this attack
only use
albuterol occasionally, and symbicort if I get
bronchitis.
Any thoughts on the high levels of esophils?
Thanks
XXXXXXX
