Tachycardia Again

It’s ~3:15 am and I’ve been in bed since 11:00 pm but no sleep. Breathing when lying down has become more difficult as well as my cough. Actually, I coughed so hard that I ended up vomiting three times. Again, I don’t think it’s COVID-19 since I have no fever. It’s probably inadequate dialysis since my last URR test result is only ~61%. Not sure what the dialysis clinic will do since we’re trying to get the new fistula to work.

It also could be me playing iPad games in bed. I either roll to the left or the right while in bed and I noticed my chest hurting a lot more after awhile. Maybe I should stop that too.

After one of my coughing sessions, I noticed that the arrhythmia was back. Heart beat was still in the 50s but irregular. Then my heart rate increased to 110 bpm, like it did last week. However, it only lasted a few minutes and then slowed back to normal. I think the coughing fit has something to do with it. Weird.
