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

So far so good. All the best Merlot!

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.

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)

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

Good news merlot. Here’s hoping for a positive house sale. .

???

merlotgran I missed this and am sorry to hear you have been unwell. BIL had a similar procedure recently and says he feels better than he's felt for ages.
Take care and hope the house viewing goes well.

That sounds very scary. My DH has had a few episodes of a heart rate approaching 200 over the past couple of years. We were both very scared at the time. We went to A and E and they brought the rate down by giving him a Beta Blocker which he is on permanently now as the episodes got more frequent. What a shame your house sale has fallen through but the market is very good at the moment, DiL has worked for various Estate Agents for over 30 years and has never known anything like it

Hope you are feeling much better ?

Flipping heck Merlot. Love your Mantra!!

That’s been my mantra for years ? I say it so often that the family often say it is what it is as mum would say

Missed that you had been ill but glad procedure went well and that you are now home and being spoilt by DD. Hope house soon sells and all goes well from now on. Great mantra btw and so true ?.

Glad to hear you are home and well Merlotgran good luck with the house sale.

Sorry to hear you have been unwell ,I hope your house sells soon.

"It is what it is.....'til it ain't, anymore"
(Kacey Musgraves' pretty song.)
So pleased you're on the mend, merlot ??‍♀️
Never let a house sale wind you up - just go with the flow and remember your mantra - because next time will probably be very soon and better!

I clearly hadn’t read the whole thread so I didn’t know you were unwell and admitted to hospital merlotgran. So pleased you’re okay now. ? your mantra and?for your house sale.

Hope your feeling better and getting thouroughly spoilt!

Missed you have been in hospital Merlot glad you are on the mend. “It is what it is” is my mantra too. All the best x
