cath lab revisited

morning all. just wee update. iv been in hospital a week now waiting to get to cath lab. had a brutal angina episode yesterday and don’t know if this prompted a response or not but hoping to get over today. keep everything crossed for me. this’ll be my 5 th angio and the nerves don’t seem to get any better. on the plus side i’m still under the influence of the morphine from last night so might dose on and off all day🤣have a great day all

and i’ll see you on the flip side❤️shiona

Morning Shoshov

I live 5 minutes away from Hairmyes, spent 7 weeks in before being transferred to the Jubilee.

Could more or less see my home from the cardio ward window drove me nuts!😂 the waiting around is the hardest thing.

Wishing you well

Hi Shiona. Are you still taking advantage of the free hospitality?😋 So sorry to hear you are still waiting for your sightseeing trip to the cath lab. Hope your ward is a little quieter now. Let us all know when you know what is going on. Very best wishes x

Sorry to hear you’re not well. Hope you get the treatment you need ASAP. You’re only missing cold and rain so take advantage of being inside in the warm for now. Take care.
