Managed to walk a kilometer today. Now having a small lie down. #CardiacRecovery

GOAL UNLOCKED! I hit 400 miles for the year. Can't wait to brag on #runchat. I know. It's not much for many of the hardcore types, but given what 2024 brought me mentally and physically, it's a holiday miracle! #runsky #runningpunks #mostlywalking #feelslikerunning #takotsubo #cardiacrecovery

Brag: No photos, but four miles with the group yesterday followed by a splendid #BREAKFAST! #runchat #breakfastwithNita #comebackkid #cardiackid #cardiacrecovery #takotsubo #brokenheartsyndrome

Yes!! More awareness and research please. Three-time #Takotsubo survivor here. Broken-heart syndrome is real. #cardiacrecovery #tts #cardiachealth #womenshealth #hearthealth #cardiosky #postmenopausalwomen
Takotsubo Syndrome (TTS) has become a recognized condition 🌏, particularly affecting postmenopausal women. Improved clinical awareness & greater access to cardiac testing have led to an increase in the diagnosis of TTS.

Q1: Blazing hot especially now that I take #betablockers. My hands are always freezing. I missed most of this season's group meet-ups because I couldn't bear the cold anymore. #medsky #runchat #cardiacrecovery #takotsubo #brokenheartsyndrome

Brag: Ran the OSU 4-Miler last Sunday and made it to running group yesterday! Not calling it a comeback. Every time I say that something happens. But I'm grateful to be doing whatever this is called. #runchat #cardiacrecovery #osu4miler #finishonthe50

As the survivor of recurrent #Takotsubo episodes, I should minimum stress. So, I'm revising #MemorialMemoir about my father's death from lung cancer, my near-suicide, and my subsequent psychiatric hospitalization and treatment. You know, light-"hearted" stuff. #punintended. #cardiacrecovery #booksky

A4: If you feel like you're having (another) heart episode, call 911 or ask someone to do so. Then, get somewhere warm and lie flat. DO NOT DRIVE YOURSELF TO THE ER! I made it safely, but have nightmares about the people I could have killed if I'd passed out. #runchat #takotsubo #cardiacrecovery

A2: I'd like to try running when I'm running. ;-) Last year I only ran a few steps of my "running." Seriously though, I just hope to get back into it. I've lost faith in my body and I'm slowly rebuilding the trust. #runchat #takotsubo #cardiacrecovery

A3: Having a #Takotsubo, #brokenheartsyndrome episode WHILE running. Knew something was off and didn't listen to my body. Then, I drove myself the ER instead of calling 911. STUPID! Could have killed someone if I'd crashed the car. Lucky lady. Lucky other drivers. #runchat #cardiacrecovery #runsky

Thank you. I'm so fortunate. And wow did the ER docs read me the riot act for driving myself. Oof. Won't do that again! #takotsubo #cardiacrecovery #runchat

Primary 2025 running goal will be to push through the fear. My body betrayed me. The professionals tell me I'm healed. My job is to trust that. Sounds simple, but just writing it gives me the shivers. #newyearsresolution #runchat #takotsubo #cardiacrecovery #brokenheartsyndrome #runningpunks
#RunChat Q6: What’s your first big running goal of 2025?
January 1, 2025 at 2:52 AM
A1: I'll give myself an A. An A+ would have been pushing through fear. My body betrayed me. The professionals tell me I'm healed. My job is to trust that. Oh! Thanks! that will be my New Year's goal. I hadn't thought of one yet. #runchat #takotsubo #cardiacrecovery #brokenheartsyndrome #runningpunks

Another two mile walk tonight. I'm going to continue this slow walk pace for at least another week and then will add in a bit of slow jogging. I'm off the beta blocker and don't want to increase intensity too quickly. #runsky #runningsky #runchat #Takotsubo #cardiacrecovery

Walked 2 miles indoors tonight! Last night, my heart rate plummeted after 1-1/4 and I had to sink to the nearest chair. I've been tapering off the beta blocker so didn't take it this afternoon and tonight was fine. Fingers crossed I'm okay w/o the med. #Takotsubo #cardiacrecovery #runchat #runsky

Until my most recent #mammogram, I didn't know I could ask for an arterial calcium scan. I'll have that done every time now. My three #Takotsubo episodes were not related to blockages. It's a different animal altogether, but knowledge is power. #hearthealth #cardiosky #womenshealth #cardiacrecovery

I hear you on the HR issues. I was on a beta blocker for nine months. HR would drop from 100 to 45 - boom. I tapered off, but HR bounces around like a ball. #takotsubo #cardiacrecovery #runchat

But. But. But, it was only recently on the Bold & the Beautiful. What do you mean it's not new? #sarcasmsky #takotsubo #cardiosky #cardiacrecovery #brokenheartsyndrome

Oh sweetheart. I'm so sorry. Chances are your physical heart will heal quickly if you rest and increase activity slowly. Your emotional heart will take much longer. Fellow TTS-survivor hugs. #takotsubo #brokenheartsyndrome #cardiacrecovery

Thanks so much. And yes. As a survivor of multiple #brokenheartsyndrome aka #Takotsubo episodes, I continue to remind myself that while my emotional heart is shattered, my physical heart doesn't have to break. #cardiacrecovery #mentalhealth #mentalillness #mindbodyconnection

Brag: Shouldn't be a brag. Just another training run, but yesterday's nine-miler was a distance and pace PR for 2025. Still afraid this "comeback" will end, but so far, so good. #comebackkid #cardiacrecovery #runchat #takotsubo #brokenheartsyndrome

First day back at work after medical leave - which sounds funny to say since I work from home 100%.

Remembering what I do, and how I do it, after 4 weeks, is... interesting.
