After a terrible 10 days.
Father in law taken terribly I'll.
Having to travel backwards and home again to Liverpool from Bangor,
My husband s not too good,stressed to hell.
My brother in law's daughter lost her unborn baby at six months plus.
Working for people who talk behind your back!
BINGO.
I've got AF
I have been really good since end of July now this.
Did I expect it.....I think I may have done.
Hope it doesn't last long.
Sorry needed to rant!!!!!
Rant away we have big shoulders to cry on. Join the sod it club although my local branch has a slightly stronger name.,
Thanks BobD
Thank goodness j can rant.
Lets hope its not a long one.
Xx
Oh, what nasty things to happen. Rant away! No wonder you have AF. It will probably do the same as last time.
Well done for going from July to now.
Hoping you are soon in normal rhythm again.
Well Gwyn, I think there are times when it does us good to have a rant. Sometimes I quite enjoy having one. So rant away, we're on your side by the way.

Tough times a perfect storm for af to flourish, do hope things settle for you quickly so life eventually can take on a better hue. Take care.
hope you are better soon!
Hope things get better for you.
Oh dear....after all that, things can only get better ! Do hope so.

Rant away, better out than in xxx
I know how you feel I’m in a similar place - currently undergoing tests for breast cancer, the Consultant seems convinced I have it; I get the biopsy result on Tuesday but even if that’s clear I will be referred for further biopsy underMRI scan; move house on Wednesday but don’t know when I can move into new house because of legal complexities (I am hoping by the end of November). Thank goodness for good friends willing to put me up. Plus close friend just had very serious and worrying diagnosis confirmed - she relies on me a lot and I feel I am letting her down just at the very time she needs me more than ever. So, after what seemed to be a successful ablation a year last September I am back in AF again. Now I am worried that the AF will interfere with any treatment I might need for the cancer, if it is confirmed. A horrid time to be ‘homeless’ especially as I am moving to a totally different area, so different medical authority and professionals. Well, that’s my rant, sorry! Tricia
Oh my word Tricia how horrid for you. I hope things improve for you and your friend. Can do nothing on a practical basis but send our thoughts and best wishes for a significant improvement in the very near future. Regards Roy
Its been a very sweet and bitter year Roy.
Our grandaughter was norn. My husband diagnosed with inoperable stomach cancer. But is doing ok promise. Next scan is end of November.
Fingers crossed.
My father in law is 90. He has been ill for a while.
He is very ill. The journey from Wales to liverpool takes it out of him and AF doesn't help
Just because it still scares me to go too far from home
What a year.
But we do have each other plys little Maddie who keeps us on check.
Thank you for caring.
Hi Tricia
I have had breast cancer (diagnosed 3 years ago) and have AF. When I had the op I think they took extra care, but all went well and recovered quickly. I did not have chemo but had radiotherapy which is a bit draining but still here and clear now for nearly 3 years. Good luck with your other problems.
Cassie
Good for you
Hang in there.
The chemo makes you so tired.
But you are amazing.
I take my imanginary hat off to you.
Keep in touch.
Let me know how your doing
Hi Cassie, Thank you for your encouraging message. It’s amazing how many people are affected. My daughter had breast cancer about 9 years ago, she had a tough time but touch wood is fine now. So, I must stay positive- just an additional anxiety not having a permanent home right now; at least I suppose it stops me dwelling on one thing too much! But my mind is all over the place and I keep forgetting things! It’s good to know though that AF didn’t hinder your treatment. Thanks again, stay well and good luck for the future. Best wishes, Tricia
Oh dear goodness.
I hope things turn oyt with good resulrs for you.
Life does send curve balls for us to deal with .
Take care
Hi gwyn...sosorry to hear about your combination of problems
Thats all you need Getting A/F on top of anything else.
My wife has come through 5 serious illnesses Two of then very life threatening
and caring for her with A/F over 6 years has not been easy so I can sympathise
with you all i can say is that prayer has brought us through and we will make a point to
remember you
My A/F started up again after a visit to a cinema with excessive sound levels but I will
beat it I hope things get better for you
Bless you.
You have so much on your plate.
Im back in nsr.
Thankfully.
Another long day to liverpool for my husband.
And so it goes on
Please take care.
Best wishes.
I feel for you and yes rant away it feels good on occasions to let it all hang out metaphorically at least. We tend to a mind set of " oh bugger, will this set of circumstances trigger my AF" which is stressful in itself. gwyn53 . I am slowly learning to embrace "this too shall pass" and find the fact that tomorrow will be different sometimes better but always different, is a comfort.
I have just survived the events you are describing Tricia. Diagnosis of early breast cancer, lumpectomy, wound problems (long job but now fine) and various other issues+ virus which has caused AF before. Can't see why AF should interfere. Sometimes we have to let doctors make decisions even though we don't like losing control. Waiting for results was ten times worse than the reality. I had several biopsies with no interruption of my warfarin by the way.

Thank you for your encouragement. It’s horrid having to face these things but we are so lucky to have the benefits of modern medicine and techniques. Sounds as if you had a tough time. I wasn’t aware that a virus could cause AF. Thank you again and good luck for the future. Tricia
Sorry you are having such a tough time,it's good to let it all out an d have a good rant, hope things will look up for all soon .
You deserve a good rant. Sorry life is giving you so much grief. Britta
No worse than many.
Gwyn - I'm so sorry you have so much to deal with, but, somehow we do get through it and ranting is a godsend - doesn't help but it feels good. This is the most supportive and helpful group of people we could hope for.
Aw - feeling weepy as I thought I had a lot to deal with at the moment, but others like yourself put my miseries into perspective.
I hope things go better for you - and ignore the natterchats at work.
Was going to grumble myself but I'm sorry to hear your troubles. I'm trying to stay calm, but not slept well worrying that I lost my phone yesterday while visiting family down other end of the country, only realising when I've got back home. It has all my hospital stuff on and all my contacts for support workers.. I hope your afib settles itself soon. X
Im fine.
Its the silly stuff that gets you.
I hate travelling now.
I love .my own area.
I het worked ip. Which is silly
Good to kmow uou have ypir phone back.
