Hi and welcome to this forum of helpful people. Many here are very knowledgable and I have learned alot, received good support and a sense that folks are on here for the right reasons. One thing I love is that I am in the USA and many others if not most are from other countries. Lots of differences in treatment, but in my case, Ive learned a fib is just as annoying in England as it is right here in rural Missouri😂 Tell us a bit about your self if you feel like it.

Hi zena just wanted to say hello as I'm fairly new to the site. Diagnosed with complete heartblock and have had a pacemaker fitted recently. Im also from Newcastle and have to agree with you about good hospitals. The staff at the Queen Elizabeth in Gateshead were brilliant. You're also right about Newcastle. Fab city and friendly people!

Take care

Tracey
