72 little hours. No, I won't sing (although it is a great song.)
On my doctors "advice" I have discontinued the use of Sudafed / sinus pills (either phenylephrine or pseudoephedrine), have reduced my caffeine intake and have tried to limit use of my Albuterol inhaler. The result? My heart rate is down from 100+ to slightly fewer than 80 beats per minute in only the three days since the physical.
EDIT: I take that back. After eating lunch (a Wendy's large chili, about 12 oz.) my heart rate went back up to slightly less than 100. Two hours later it's at about 90. I'm going to have to take more data points.
EDIT 2: Now four hours later, it's down to about 80 again.

That damn salt...! I have to be careful; particularly salty pizza will make my heart race for a few hours. Chili in general is actually pretty low-fat, but I suspect Wendy's pours on the sodium!
