Set, Game and Match
One of my colleagues at work invited me to play tennis with him.
I am a bit hesitant because of my defibrillator (ICD) and because tennis is a stop and go sport. Detection in my device is set at 200 beats per minute (bpm), meaning: Should my heart rate reach 200 bpm, my ICD will deliver a shock. Usually, the range is between 170 to 220 bpm depending on the patient's medical history and lifestyle.
Now my cardiologist thinks it is almost impossible to reach 200 bpm because I am taking Beta blockers.
I decided to go out there and make Roger Federer proud.
