To make a long story short Roy developed atrial flutter at a rate of over 140 and spent 3 days in the hospital and a week home, but he is working again though is still not in regular sinus rhythm. He did NOT have a heart attack. He may have to have a cardioversion where they put him to sleep and then use the paddles on him to get his heart back in regular rhythm. You can live your whole life in an abnormal rhythm, but there are complications (like stroke) that can develop from it, so they have him on Coumadin and 2 heart meds. He just likes to shake things up from time to time but is doing fine right now.
