Oh boy.....

I had a stress echo on Wednesday and it has floored me. Stopped the Bisoprolol after Sundays dose in readiness and as advised but felt ok from this. The drug and squeezing a ball pushed my heart rate up to 141bpm and I was a bit uncomfortable. Since then I have felt awful and though back on the full dose of Bisoprolol since Thursday I feel washed out and am back to breathless from simple exercise.

Anyway I am still here and again, Cardiac Rehab have been brilliant in advising and checking up on me.

Good news I don't need any more stents for the time being.

Going back to work tomorrow with a smile and cheery mood.

Hope all you guys are keeping well and positive
