Guest guest Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 , Your eye pressure may still be up! I hope that you have an appt tomorrow to see the Ophthalmologist. It wouldn't hurt to get that pressure checked. You said you would go in and get some IV-- sounds like you're suspecting that you're dehydrated? If you've been vomiting-- then by all means get in and get the help. Dehydration will make you weak, sore, achy, and it does screw up your heart beat. Have you got the stuff to make a banana smoothie? A bit of orange juice, some yoghurt, a banana and ice put in the blender works well to bring the potassium level back up. It also tastes so good that you will get it down, and that will help the fluids issues. If your heart is still beating irreguarlly, get into er. It's not something to mess with. EKG's can tell them if somethings beating irregurally, (can't spell tonight- sorry) and then if necessary they can do a heart catherization to see if there is structural damage, or a transesophagial ekg thing where they introduce an ultrasound image thing via the mouth-- (Versed is a wonderful drug) and they can see if you have conduction problem this way. (I can't remember what it is specifically, but I had it done about a year ago--it's painless- but intimidating.) Take care of you-- and don't hesitate to get into er if you need to.
