Welcome to The Mac Velo Chronicles! In this heartfelt video, titled "Talking while Zwifting: My Heart Arrhythmia Story, Part 1 - Discovery & Diagnoses," I share a personal journey that has been difficult for me to talk about. Cycling on Zwift has become a good outlet, helping me find the courage to discuss what happened.

It all began with how I first felt - strange sensations in my chest. Resting heart rate dropped alarmingly.v Regrettably, I ignored these symptoms, hoping they'd go away on their own. I kept my worries to myself, afraid to burden others or acknowledge the severity of the situation.

As time passed, the symptoms persisted, and I realized I couldn't ignore them any longer. I finally decided to seek professional help and went to see a doctor. After a thorough examination, the doctor recommended further tests and sent me to the hospital for a better understanding of what was going on.

For two nerve-wracking days, I underwent observation and various medical tests. It was during this time that the diagnosis was revealed - atrial flutter. The news shook me to the core, and I knew I had to face this health challenge head-on.

In the upcoming part 2 video, titled "Treatment and Recovery," I will share the next chapter of my journey - the steps I took to address this condition and the path to recovery. It's essential to understand that you're not alone if you're facing similar struggles, and I hope my story will inspire and encourage others to take their health seriously.
