Heart Deviation & Prick Test

0 Replies

Hi all am new to this group but not healthunlocked.

Not many people know how lay person can spot heart trouble that warrants medical intervention.

Picture is my dad’s heart NOW he is Dementia Alzheimer’s suffer and as been for a long time.

Is awful disease and heart breaking.

For few days he as been more confused AND injured he’s toe.

But like a normal persons will bleed my dad’s cloted right away NOW this is second time I have seen this phenomenon THATs why I call it prick test if surspect heart trouble given clots right away.

Lucky for me I have heart stress Monitor French paramedic’s triled In there ambulance’s

So given prick test results I thought all get Heart Monitor out and just check dad’s heart given he had not been him self.

Only to see bad heart deviation on Monitor.

Now if I had not seen clothing going on I would of thought it was just he’s advancing dementia Alzheimer’s.

Sad thing is district nurses seen my dad’s toe and clothing issues and did nothing.
