Dear Dr Heart....
What is Wrong with Mark DeRosa's Heart?
Re-entrant tacchycardias
There is an extra pathway, or "wire" if you will, for electricity to take
in some people's heart. Now and then the normal wire and the extra
wire can form a circuit that perpetuates itself more rapidly than normal.
A radio frequency ablation fries that extra "wire" so the abnormal rapid
conduction can't take place. It's one of those heart things
that can be completely cured about 95% of the time.
Seldom had any long term consequences.

Dear Dr. Heart,
I take Viagra for "tennis elbow" (if you know what I mean) and now I have a condition known as "hot dog fingers." What should I do?

Doc Heart-
My friend Sherm's wife is having a problem with his um-heart in the old sackeroo. Is there something he can do to get the "abnormal rapid conduction" turned around? These problems are also causing him to sleep past 4:30 AM, crippling his productivity.
