@Platonic_Steths They certainly are.

I don't have much experience in this area, but I'd most like to have an echocardiogram done on me, particularly one with the Doppler function to illustrate blood flow and particularly after a stress test. Not only am I curious about how large my heart actually is, but I want to know how serious my murmur is, and an echo would be able to show what exactly is happening in there.

EDIT: Should note that I've never actually had an echo done. I did have an ECG once, but it was in a medical context. In recreational contexts, I have only done auscultation, recording, and measurement (pulse ox or something similar).

I think my favorite is auscultation with a stethoscope, I really like the sound of the heartbeat, maybe the stress test to see how strong my heart is during exercise and how fast it can beat.

:heart: is really nice

wow if your heart was working very hard.

@mypumpingheart I was mixing some topsoil into a fallow garden bed, using a shovel -- hence the file name. You do make me wonder what a stint of similar manual labor in the sort of weather we've been having here recently would do to my pump, though.

@mypumpingheart I haven't been on an elliptical since childhood, so I don't know. Also, I've been curious for a while about using a stair stepper -- that one I've never actually used. Perhaps someday I'll give them both a good college try... and record the results.

wow! your heart beats something fast doing this activity, pleasant sound of your mitral.

I love how you sneak in little workouts even at work lol. She definitely likes it as she started pounding fast and hard right away. Around how old are you hun if you don't mind me asking?

She's trying to recover to her normal rhythm. You can tell she's been through alot with the workout lol. So very beautiful

No wonder she beats so slow during rest lol. You give her very very strenuous workouts. The fact she was beating when slower in your latest recording shows she's getting bigger and stronger with time and working out. So beautiful

This is absolutely beautiful. I counted 42 beats per minute. I'd definitely shows you work out because of how slow she beats. She also sounds very strong because her valves stay open for a long time, allowing larger than usual amounts of blood to pass though. Also quite a long pause between beats from having to fill with so much blood. very precious and healthy.

@hiyasynthgirl I don't think that it's S3, S3 is a quieter and softer sound after S2. On this record, the first sound of the pair is same as or quieter than the second. Also the delay widens and collapses with breathing. I am pretty certain that it must be split S2. (Usual disclaimer: I have no medical education, don't trust me :) ).

Also, good tagline! :D

Thank you for your words and if we will all respect each other.

@ miguel Thank you.
@thewyrdguy Really? That's interesting. I think I was lying supine/sort of to the left when I recorded this. One of my other interlocutors mentioned an S3.
@PlatonicSteths I do work out, but that was only the most long-term of a stack of factors that resulted in this. From short-term to long-term, the others were 1) I was doing 36:12 intermittent fasting at the time and I would get some spectacular lows on the fasting days; 2) I was lying on my bed, awake but relaxed and maybe (I don't recall but possibly) a bit drowsy; and 3) I knew i was going slow because I had gotten my then-record-low measurement (38) minutes before.

People from internet because are hiden forget what it's to respect a person. It's okay if you don't want to tell or share something, I think. I know this post is really old, but well, this is the show new people come here and I would not do what you should do more if you put in risk your life.

Nice to hear a slow heart for a change, thank you!
You have a pretty wide S2 split too, on this record. (I don't think it's unhealthy, it changes nicely with breathing.)
