> I agree it sounds serious to me also people's hearts don't stop unless there is a reason. I'd get a good cardiologist to work you up seriously. Without life an ad? That sounds like cardiac arrest. Did they do CPR or Use the Paddles with electric joules? Love Phillipa
(Kind of) funny story there...the first time my heart stopped for 5.5 sec, I was asleep in the hospital bed, and my brother was in the room watching me. My HR went down to zero, and he rushed out of the room and was met by a bunch of people rushing in. They started putting the big patches on my chest and side to zap me, and I woke up and started cursing at them because the patches were so cold, and asking my brother what the hell these people were doing in my room. I was so incoherent -- I had NO idea what was going on. I asked "Jesus, do you think you could get those things any colder???" A nurse said, "Well, we were just hoping the shock of the cold would help start your heart up." I said, "WELL, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!" I didn't even remember any of it until my brother told me about it later. Ah, good times.
