Please add your own verse.

A variation on Jingle Bells please add your own verse(s). Sorry know I should have waited until next week but just couldn't.

Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh,

All in sinus rhythm and laughing all the way.

Bells on Bobs sleigh ring, a wee dram makes him bright.

What fun it is as Ian skis by checking we're all right!

Tibetan bells, Tibetan bells Grandma plays today.

Oh what calm she brings to us in a caring peaceful way.

Tibetan bells, Tibetan bells jingle all the way.

Oh what fun to be so well on a snowy Christmas day!

Come on someone else add a verse please. With hindsight perhaps we shouldn't use forum members names in case we accidentally cause offence. My fault, sorry.

I’ve got some flecainide. I’ve put it on one side,

I’ll take a bit if things go wrong - AF then won’t last long!

It has to just behave, while we all have a rave

Sinus rhythm, that's the thing, for happiness to bring

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells,

Festive greetings, all

This forum brightens up our day:

Of sunshine it’s a ray, hey

Jingle bells, jingle bells,

Take care, try not to fall,

If too much trifle comes your way,

You’d better take that sleigh

Here's one

"Just siting on the couch - I forget and slouch

Vagus nerve reacts - I'm in A-fib, Ouch!

Try cure # 1 - Drink OJ till its done

Potassium kicks in - and I'm NSR again!!

Jingle Bells - Afib's hell - It stokes my wildest fears

Holter monitors, ablations, drugs - It's been going on 10 years

So I read this forum - To learn the norms

You're insights have been great

Happy Holidays to you all - Before it is too late!!!....lol

Dashing through the door, on my way to play

Pick up key from floor, heart goes way hey hey

Alarm bells star to ring, chest feels rather tight

Rhythm goes ding ding , oh no another scary night

Great and so appropriate.

Hi Jean,

The whole thread is really very very entertaining,creative and festive but like Dedeottie my brain is temporarily out of action...CX

Well, this isn't a whole verse, but here's a chorus...

Take a walk, get your rest, put that cookie down!

That way you'll be NSR when Santa comes to town!

Full of Xarelto glee

No INR for me

I'll eat my sprouts and what I like

Now I'm Warfarin free!

Oh! Rattle pills

Doctor fills

Our tummies full of meds

All we want is a quiet heart

As we lie in our beds!
