Did I mention she was
Very Pretty?
Some young idiot boy will marry the girl, be assured of it. May well already be married, as all nurses take their rings off due to the incessant hand scrub that goes on on entering and leaving a recovering patient's room.
=======================================
Pulse rate "afib" issues with cardiac work. Working on your heart "injures" it and every injured heart reacts by defaulting to the easiest, least damaging heart rate it can find.
Historically with mechanical valve replacement folks like me this means a very light, very fast pulse.
At the hospital the max I ever saw at rest was 150 bpm -- a hummingbird's pulse rate. This slowed while I was there to 124 bpm, then by the time I was released it was down to 114.
After a week at home I am down to 98 bpm and I am entering the general turf called "normal".
ah, progress .....
