I forgot to mention...

After complaining about all of the bad stuff that happened today, I realized that I forgot to mention the one good thing. Nathan is now pacing himself. Meaning, he isn't relying on the pacerwires to maintain his heart rate. He has had a heart rate in the 90s all day. The rhythm is still not a sinus one. He is in a junctional rhythm. However, at least he can maintain the rate by himself. They don't know what will happen long term and whether he will regain a normal sinus rhythm. I think only time will tell with that. They are giving him a 50/50 chance of the sinus node recovering; although no one can tell me why he lost his sinus rhythm in the first place.
