Just so you know, Dad's heart went A-fib again this evening. If you look back at posts in the beginning, his heart did this then too. Because of this reaction, he has to move back to the more intensive care unit on the 5th floor. I don't have a new room number, but when I do, I'll post it.
From what my Mom said, he is totally "pissed" because he feels fine, but his vitals are all over the place. They tried to get it back to a normal rhythm with an injectable and it didn't work, so he has to go back on the cardiac drip medication and the big heart monitor once he gets to the fifth floor. That means, he'll be tethered again between all the wires and a very unhappy camper.
After the good day he was having, I'm sure this was a huge let down to him, so please send good prayers up tonight for his spirit.
The good thing is he has a lot of fans on the 5th floor in the nursing staff, so he'll be well taken care of and I told Mom, don't let them take his bed from him with that extender! She said, oh, he's already told them that! I guess he unloaded on the poor doctor too, but I'm sure he could handle it!
