Tell ‘em to keep digging! Probably all done ‘n dusted by now, hope it went well ......

How come you have your phone with you ?? Hope all has gone well by now !

[NorfolkGal in reply to Hidden]

No probs with phone, all done now, very frightening for little reason. They could not find a vein for cannula so decided to install another line in the tune in the groin. First they injected with anaesthetic, then I didn’t feel a thing from then on. I woke up in recovery and wow, I can’t feel my heart beat at all, no skips, no eptopic and AF. Hope this continues. Have got date of 11 December for my bi-ventricular pacemaker

It's the most wonderful thing to wake up in sinus rhythm isn't it! Please take it easy over the next few days and don't trigger AF back by walking up a steep hill as I did (the day after my last cardioversion). Let your heart get strong again in it's correct beat.

Best wishes

And so am I, celebrating with Chinese takeaway tonight x

I can relate to that Norfolk Gal. The nurses at my local hospital hide when they see me coming as I am so difficult to get blood from or to put a canula in to. Hope all was well in the end!
