Despite the misgivings that Susan had, we painted in the sky walks last night. We were working on the sky walk over Riverside between the STA Bus Plaza and the Crescent building.
Everything was going along fine when I had a dizzy spell. I had time to get off the ladder and I tried to cough through it. Usually, I can make a dizzy spell go away by coughing forcefully. It didn't work. I went down and the defib went off. It's like getting hit in the chest with a 2x4. It happened about 8:30.
Well, that ended the painting session as far as Susan was concerned. So we packed up and headed for home.
I called the Heart Clinic this morning and reported the incident. I ended up talking to Nurse John and gave him the update. My hope was they would move up my appointment. He called back and left the appointment as is but got me a prescription for Amiodorone. That's a powerful drug I've been on before that regulates how fast my heart can go...I think.
In any event, we are painting tonight. I hope it all goes well.
