My Latest Magnesium EXA Test & RBC Blood Test Results

Travis Van Slooten |June 4, 2016 | 16 Comments

Wouldn’t you know it but a few days after I posted my update about my battle with PVCs and PACs, I went almost three weeks with nothing but solid NSR. It was awesome! I forgot how nice it was to live a “normal” life where you didn’t have to think or worry about your heart. But just as quickly as they left, they came roaring back again and have been bugging me a lot in the past week. In fact, […]

The Battle Against the Beasts – PVCs and PACs Continue

Travis Van Slooten |May 13, 2016 | 21 Comments

This picture says it all. This is how I feel some days when I’m “under attack” by PVCs and PACs. More on that in a minute. It’s been a while since I posted about my one year anniversary of being free of afib so I thought I’d provide an update. The great news is I continue to be free of atrial fibrillation and for that I’m so happy and grateful for. After being afib-free now for over 15 months I’m […]

My One-Year Anniversary of Being A-Fib Free Since My Ablation

Travis Van Slooten |March 7, 2016 | 16 Comments

I meant to get this post published over the weekend but I was busy with family and doing miscellaneous things around the house. On March 5, 2015 I had my first (and hopefully last) catheter ablation by the great Dr. Natale down at St. David’s in Austin, TX. I’m happy to report that I have been 100% afib-free since the procedure! Yes, it’s been over a year since I had my last episode of atrial fibrillation. Prior to the ablation […]

I posted back on February 10th all the details of my in-lab sleep study experience. I finally had my follow up appointment with my sleep doctor on February 25th to discuss the results of the study. I went into the appointment fully expecting to be told I had some form of mild sleep apnea. I was prepared to be offered three options to address my mild sleep apnea: Do nothing (since it is so mild) Use a CPAP mask Use […]

My In-Lab Sleep Study Experience

Travis Van Slooten |February 10, 2016 | 8 Comments

As per my last update, my sleep study was originally scheduled for Monday, February 1st. A few days before the study I started having second thoughts about it and I started getting nervous about our insurance coverage. I wasn’t sure if the study was going to be covered as the sleep clinic didn’t say anything about it. The last thing I needed was a $2,000 bill for a sleep study so I decided to take a time out to get […]
