-Are you serious?
-Yes, Dr Takemi. I'm afraid you have an arrhythmia. That would explain your dizziness and high heart rate. We have to do an EKG in order to check your heart.
-Aww, man. Who would have thought? I am a doctor, who cures others. Now I need healing.

Summary:
Your name is Akemi Homura, and you're living on borrowed time. You don't particularly feel worth that time, even, until you transfer to a new school after half a year in a hospital- and meet Kaname Madoka and her friends.
Madoka is gregarious, charming, and always ready to lend a helping hand; everything you could want in a friend. Still, you can't shake the feeling that she's not telling you something important, and that friends, family, and classmates are all a part of her terrible secret.
The question, however, isn't what Madoka's secret is. The question is what you'll do about it.
Every time I write an update for this fic it surprises me. Enjoy!
Found a new piece of cardio equipment to play on, high incline treadmill. Screwed around with the settings and found the holy grail, exercise that stresses my heart before my legs quit. I was having a blast listening to my heart explode in me when it started getting crazy irregular. No other symptoms so I just pushed on and on, I loved it. I can't wait to do this again and again.
First file gets irregular at 4:10 ish
Same workout, different round of settings. Gets especially irregular around 1 min and around 3 mins
Popping in for #NewYearNewComic! If you're jonesin' for stories about magic and adventure and people caring very deeply about each other while also giving each other no dignity, then Arrhythmia's out here going strong.
how do you know whether or not you are considered disabled?
i have a lot of conditions that limit me and my body, and what im capable of doing on any given day. i cannot seem to find a good answer as to what constitutes as to referring to a person as disabled. no one really told me whether i was or not each time i get another or new diagnosis on top of everything else. my mother didn't even explain to me that i was neurodivergent. i had myself diagnosed when i was 18, and when i was excited to tell my mom and talk about it, how much relief and comfort i felt, she sneered at me with a harsh tone, "well of course you're autistic, [deadname], you always have been."
Bigheartedness, figuratively speaking, is a wonderful trait. But literally speaking, an oversized heart can lead to arrhythmia, heart failure and sudden death. For people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy – an inherited disorder characterised by enlargement of the heart muscle and the cells within – minimising these risks is mainly a case of adopting a heart-healthy lifestyle. Indeed, there is only one medication on the market specifically developed to treat the condition, and it too carries a risk of heart failure. To gain more insight into the pathology of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and thus possible new ways to clinically intervene, researchers are examining which genes are turned on and off in individual heart cells (pictured) from people with (right) and without (left) the condition. The next step will be to sort through the many disease-associated genes to find those that are driving pathology and that might be suitable targets for new drugs.

TW: If you can't hear fast / irregular heartbeats, please don't listen to!
Hey,
I'm up with a new audio of my wild beating heart from 14th May.
Done again a little breath holds and some different breathes because I couldn't hold it as long as I wanted. I know, here is most of the beats fast not very spectecular. But when I breathed again normal, the different beat happened again short. Didn't expected that hehe

Chapter dedicated to my good friend @mismagireve because they commented on chapter 2 and I remembered how much fun this concept was.
