It is what it is....My new mantra!

merlot so glad to see you’ve come through this episode, still with your customary pragmatism and sense of humour. Good
luck with the house sale malarkey, that would induce an increased heart rate for the best of us! x

Glad things are settling down for you, sorry about the house sale falling through, however I’m sure someone will snap it up in a flash- houses are going like hot cakes here.

Oh my! I’d missed all this, Merlot. I am sorry you’ve been unwell but v glad they’ve sorted you out. A friend had similar about five years ago - bizarrely came on while she was on a short bus trip - but she’s not had a reoccurrence since then. ? It’s the same for you.

I forgot to say, I like your new mantra. It would ease stress if I can remember to say it.

Merlotgran, what a time you have had. Glad you seem to have recovered and I hope your house sale gets sorted soon.

Oh Merlotgran what an onslaught! Enjoy some R&R and let your family spoil you.

For whatever reason, my last cardioversion was via a canula rather than the " shock " treatment, to get the heartbeat back into sync.
Heart failure isn't the death sentence that it used to be as so much can be done to contain and prolong the condition. Mine was diagnosed in 2006 and I'm turned 80----just one or two blips in between but I'm still here

Any kind of an emotional trauma can increase the condition but with the right treatment it is usually only temporary. Anxiety plays a large part in creating an "episode" though to those who are unaccustomed it can be scary.

Glad that you are now home and " sitting back " so it sounds.

merlotgran it never rains it just pours I hope your recovery continues and that you find a buyer for your house soon.

(Houses here in the S E are selling PDQ)

I am so glad you have recovered. House sales seem to be going crazy at the moment, I am sute yiu will sell yours very quickly.

So far so good. All the best Merlot!
