NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Tennessee Lt. Gov. Randy McNally was hospitalized Thursday at Vanderbilt University Medical Center after falling ill during the morning legislative session and being diagnosed with heart issues that will likely require insertion of a pacemaker. The 79-year-old Oak Ridge Republican tells NewsChannel 5 that he is experiencing "episodes of bradycardia with some premature atrial contraction." Bradycardia is a slow heart rate, while premature atrial contractions are extra heartbeats.
