AM RHR=78

Followed Allie for a bit on the bike. For no particular reason I took my heart rate while pedaling. It held pretty steady at 93 which is pretty good as on Thursday my resting heart rate was 91.

Tomorrow I should get the results of my blood tests, which I'm pretty excited about. The plan for the next few days is just to keep taking it easy and hopefully watch my heart rate go down.

AM RHR=70 :)

Sitting RHR=84

Ran 2.4 miles to school: data later.

My Cardiology appointment is scheduled for after Top of Utah unfortunately which means I pretty much can't do the race unless my situation magically reverses itself.

I did get my test results back:

RBC=4.95 M/uL

Hemoglobin=15.7 g/dL

Hematocrit=45.4 %

TSH=2.42 mU/L

Troponin=.01 ng/mL

Testosterone= 685

Basically:no anemia, normal thyroid,normal Testosterone, no myocardial damage. Pretty much all the numbers were not only in the optimal range, but were the optimal value. This seems like kind of a mystery to me.

 

Anyway so much data now!

Run1 up hill to school

Mile 1 9:05 131bpm

Mile 2 10:00 151bpm

My heart rate was about 80 sitting at my desk and then dropped to 73-76 later in the day.

I will eventually get around to posting this data on my blog, but I believe that I have found the proverbial "smoking gun" for my symptoms.

On my run today I experienced a racing heart rate despite a relatively slow pace. Checking my HR monitor revealed that it had spiked to the 180s. The remainder of the run, my heart rate cycled between 130s and 180s regularly. It seemed like the oscillations decreased over time. However, they were extremely regular.

After a day off, I ran two loops of liberty park again. I ran at roughly the same pace as thursday but my heart rate was regular.
