Hope he (and everyone else who has it) is okay. Kind of crazy how just the other day I liked @6thElement 's ride on Strava and actually said out loud "what the fuck man", after seeing the distance and elevation. And now this.

@slyfink how are you doing?

I don't retain consciousness when my heart rate decides to drop into the low 30's. I've established that several times since yesterday.

better than @6thElement I gather... that's fucked. I hope you feel better soon man...

as for me, a little better. fever doesn't seem to be as bad, throat feels much better, less runny nose and less coughing. started with saline rinse 2x/day yesterday, and taking Tylenol Complete... I think both those things are helping, but so is time.

But it's not all bad. at least I've got time to start watching Breaking Bad now...

I was planning to go to EAA Airventure in Oshkosh, Wisconsin with my dad next week. That’s off the table now too. Got all the usual symptoms so far. Hate the joint pain and my body has fuck-all temperature regulation right now.

Have you developed some kind of a heart block on top of your no doubt low resting pulse from your all day climbing excursions?

I just talked to Mrs. 6th; he is in the hospital, experiencing low HR, and randomly passing out. I believe they're going to do an ultrasound on his heart, which as we know is actually a supercharged V10.

edit: should have added that he's up and chatty, so positive all things considered.

good vibes dude.

Speaking ov V10's. In the 2 days we returned from our excursion to Indiana, I saw *two* red Audi R8's. WTF are the chances?

Also just off the phone with Missus6th and have nothing much to add beyond what @Nick said. He sounded like he was in reasonable spirits in the background, Missus6th feels like they’re in great hands as far as care goes, and they’re doing what they can to get back home but also not pushing too hard to do so if it might mean jeopardizing safety.

Waiting on an ultrasound. ECG is fine when I'm normal. P wave was missing from a trace capture last night when heart rate plummeted and I blacked out.
From what I recall of cardiology you might have an AV block. Hmm, can that be transient? I’m guessing you have won yourself a week with a holter monitor at home.

I'm wearing one now (I think) and have been since last night. Won't be going anywhere today.

Attempting to stand up for two minutes earlier for the therapists was too much for my blood pumping bits to work correctly for...

Fever broken and feeling better, definitely had every symptom run through me in the last few days, fatigue, joint pain, nausea, diarrhea, head fog, headache, congestion, cough, sweats, chills, etc.
