I passed my last class and I'm graduating.

I've also been having some weird medical issues, so I may be selling some members of collection soon.

Well, that job I got offered in December is being pushed through HR at the moment to get me full time.

I'm working as an electrical engineer in Applied Research for a company that makes parts for airplanes.

As for the medical issues...

have been getting dizzy for the last month or so. Originially I thought it was just a side effect of my sinus infection, (which I still have). I went to the doctor, and she started working on the sinus infection, and worked on my allergy meds, and started looking into the dizzyness.

I had an MRI, we did a ton of testing...I've had low blood pressure the entire time. About two weeks ago, the dizziness got a lot worse. Everything kept coming back normal and then they put a PDS looping cardiac monitor on me. It turns out when I get dizzy, my heart beat goes from slower than normal to much faster than normal, and then back to slower than normal. Why it's going tachycardiac or arrythmic I don't know.

I've been to the ER three times in the last week, I don't want to go back, oor if I do go back, I want them to freakin keep me there.

So my cardiology appt got moved to monday and they're going to do some kind of test and look around in my heart and see if they'res any blockages or anything like that.

It sounds like something's wrong with the sinus node of my heart (the parts that tells it when to beat). If it is, I'm stuck with getting a pacemaker.

I had an epsiodes of SVT (superventricular tachycardia) on friday at work, and my doctor told me to go to the ER. (I make recordings when I get dizzy and I call it in, then they send it to my doctor). It didn't repeat itself at the hopsital, but I'm not supposed to go to work for 3 days.

I think I'll just buy my babies some new caging and other supplies.

Congrats on the graduating! I am sure that brings you some relief, especially as stressed as you were last term. I hope things go smoothly with the bureaucratic side of the job business.

As for the SVT, I understand what you're going through there as I have MVP and cardiomyopathy myself. I hope that a nonsurgical intervention will work for you, but at the least you need to go with whatever the docs say is the best option for you. Most of the time the dizzyness is just annoying, but it can be dangerous, too, as I totaled a car when I had an episode. Good luck.
