Heart bypass

Hi - I had a triple heart bypass 2 years ago and also have a 100% occluded cartoid artery. I am also in the over 70 age group (only just) but I do feel quite fit and go on my daily walk. . I feel particularly anxious during this pandemic as I am sure most people are. Am I being paranoid ?

Hi bowling queen,

I don’t think you’re feeling paranoid I think we are all a little anxious it’s difficult times, we have been told to self isolate and that alone makes me feel concern. Apart from my heart issues my husband as had a stroke and I am his career so need to keep him safe. I don’t think we would be human if we weren’t anxious. But at the end of the day all we can do is our best to stay safe.

Keep well stay safe best wishes Pauline
