Thank you jo.

That made sense. My husband has just had a ablation just over a week ago. He is on the waiting list for a pulmonary valve replacement but he was rushed into hospital the day after the ablation due to

tachycardia he had an echocardiogram which showed up new things which had never had 6 months ago, we were left with "that's what the echo shows see you for a follow-up in 2 weeks " so we are left with a lot of unanswered questions until we see his cardiologist in 2 weeks.

Not what you're looking for?
