hi all

Last post I was full of fluid and not feeling good at all

I’ve removed most of the fluid now and feeling much easier

I’ve had gum issues following a clean at the dentist I ended up in an emergency dentist got antibiotics for an infection

Went to pacing clinic who reduced my bottom rate to 60 bpm from 70

Who highlighted a heartbeat from my bottom chambers running alongside the pacer beat

They dropped heart rate to 30bpm to see if it was still there at first no sign but then one popped up

Pacing at 98%

don’t go back to pacing for a year for a check up

Consultant has organised another echo to see how my hearts doing

He hasn’t given an answer to my unusual natural beat

Tells me to exercise three times a week 20 mins will do

you can push yourself you won’t hurt yourself I promise he said

Did a few hours work two days later, fitting a shower tray

Picked up a stomach bug from some where

Had the screaming ab dabs since

So no exercise as yet unless I carry a toilet with me

I’m now on 6 drugs instead of the one I expected to be left with after pace and ablate

it is what it is we crack on regardless
