    Not good the last 3 days.
    I did go to doctor & had meds changed. I am to decrease the intensity of my workouts. Getting heart rate up too high & sustaining it that way is not good. Also, if meds don't help the ringing ears & dizziness... next step is ENT. Heart is fine. bp up a little. lots of testing done. Won't know all results for a few days.Difficult to shake the athlete mentality of "Push it and Push yourself!" and "You CAN DO it!"

    Linda: Thanks for letting us know about your heart rate. I guess a high rate is not good all time.
    I hope you start to feel better soon. Keep us informed how you are doing.
    There are some people on this site that go all out with exercise. I guess we just have to listen
    to our bodies.
