bimini, how did stimulants cause a congenital heart defect? doesn't congenital mean that you were born with it?
since starting stimulants, i don't think my pulse has dropped below 100. at times, my pulse is irregular, and it's almost always thready and weak. it may have to do with low blood pressure, though, or other physical illness.

Right, I was born with the defect, stimulants did not cause this. Stimulants brought out tachycardia, increased heartrate, blood pressure and stretches of irregularities. I can feel the skips and blips where I didn't feel anything before.
