Unfortunately this is not a joke,

I went into the Dr because my heart rate has been going kind of whacko. They recorded my resting heart rate in the Dr's office as 91 compared to 67 just two weeks ago and many years of registering in the 50s. After a long discussion of my symptoms they did an EKG followed by a large battery of blood tests.

I got a call shortly after leaving that my EKG revealed a very rare disorder called a mobitz type II arrhythmia. They told me that I can keep running but that I should definitely not push myself too hard. I am fortunate that I am so attuned to my body and made an appointment because apparently this can rapidly progress to something far more serious.

Anyway, now I'm going for an easy run.

so does the disorder go away or can it improve over time? At least you know what it is. Nice work getting out for a run.

It'll be really interesting to see what the blood work shows. Hope you can get some answers.

Sorry about all this James. Do you know anything about the long term treatment and prognosis for this?
