we got karstons results back. it may be hard to explain but i will give it my best shot.
the doctor said that there is something in your heart that makes it beat (duh). well karston has two of those things. the doc also said that it is very common to have more than one of those help-your-heart-beat things so there is nothing we should be seriously concerned about..except for the fact that he might pass out on very rare occasions. because he has two of those beating things there is one that is the main one which almost always will initiate the heartbeat, this leaves the other one to just hang out and not do anything. then that second one gets sick of not doing anything so it will just start to make his heart beat. when this happens the number one heart-beat-helper takes a break because the heart only needs one of them to be functioning. that is all fine and dandy until the second heart-beat-helper decides it is done helping and quits. when this happens the first heartbeat thing almost always will pick right back up. BUT..if it doesn't kick it into gear fast enough then karstons heart will miss a beat which can lead to him passing out. the doctor said he can go the rest of his life without ever passing out from that occurrence again so it was just a weird day! regardless...we are glad that nothing scary came back in tests. we love our karsty!
