Woke up one morning and didn’t think it was a big deal, told her I felt really tired and was going back to bed. She grabbed my wrist and took my pulse. After a few seconds, she said I’m going to the ER. What? Got there and my pulse was 26 BPMs and very weak. I got out a few days later with a pacemaker.
