Taken over from, 'This too shall pass.' I do love a good mantra
As some of you may already know (from the Sunday, Bloody Sunday thread,) I have recently been admitted to hospital with what I thought was a chest infection but turned out to be heart failure caused by a moderate/severe leaky valve. Not having needed the services of a GP for ten years it came as a bit of a surprise!!
With a heart rate of 136 bpm for over a week which refused to respond to medication I was told I needed a cardioversion procedure to get it back to normal.
Anyone hearing their heart treatment containing the words electric and shock can be forgiven a few tears but mine were caused by my phone pinging at that moment telling me my house sale had just fallen through!!
However.....I had nothing to fear, my heart rate is back to normal, I'm now back home with DD spoiling me rotten and there's another viewing booked for next Tuesday.
Ho Hum!
