Tonight Austin's heart rate went above 200 again, and as of right now, we're unsure what caused it. This time its a little different than last week when it happened before surgery. The last time it happened, it went above 200 and we couldn't get it under 200, finally after several hours and medication it dropped below 200 and back to a normal rate. Then tonight it kept going above 200 but only for about 30 seconds, then would drop back to his normal 140s/150s, then about a minute or two later, it would go back up above 200. The doctors did several test to try and find the answer, and they're unsure at the moment, but are treating him with some medication. The medicine seems to be working...
Pray that Austin's heart rate would stay at a stable rate, and pray that the doctors can find what caused his high heart rate tonight, so that it doesn't happen again.
Also, remember to continue to pray for Andy & Heather. Pray that God would give them patience with this constant "roller coaster." Pray that they'll remain strong and encouraged for Austin's sake.
Good Night... I'll update once we know more about his heart rate, etc...
