Setting off today to spend the night in Birmingham to be ready for early start at the QE hospital tomorrow for my av node ablation . I have the pacemaker already and this is the second stage of the procedure. I am desperate for it to help as at the moment I can do so little - even a shower wipes me out.
Fingers crossed!
I had six weeks in QE in Birmingham ( by private airyplane, no less!) so Jorge Mascaro could build me a new aorta and other bits and pieces. The six weeks was because they couldn’t do the surgery for four weeks because they had no ICU nurses. It was the longest four weeks of my life. They still had a no visiting policy because of Covid, but staff were very good at bringing me treats from M&S in the lobby, and the lovely wee fruit market at the door. I was impressed by the hospital, especially as when the doc said he wanted, say, a scan or other test, a porter appeared within minutes and the tests were done.
Good luck, and I hope it makes a new wumman of you!
