If I walked up a flight of stairs I had to sit down & pant for a few minutes.
There were a few nights when I had such bad palpitations I was worried abt sudden cardiac death (I’m a physician and know the worst complications).

On Day 17 I tried to run 1/2 a mile. For 24 hrs afterward my heart rate refused to climb down from 115 (my resting HR is usually in the 60s).
I recovered and am able to start running again now. The palpitations, panting, sudden sweats are gone, but I still get easily fatigued.

I made my will on Day 4, I think. +
