What larks! Somebody is making a fortune off me with sales of poly pockets!

Anyway, the letter just repeated most a conversation I’d had with the electro cardiologist. While he didn’t print it, he did say to me that the drugs I’m taking won’t stop another Torsades de Points episode. He did print that the bisoprolol could be reduced to 10mg from 12.5mg.

In my challenge to him about the things missed from our conversation in that letter, I did suggest that my faith in the bisoprolol is now under sever strain. I suggested a proactive course of quinidine which is now recommended after my next shock.

A question of when & not if.

I had joked with him that I should join the KGB or Mossad as I need a radar jammer type ICD to combat the spiral (?) data wave which makes my heart flutter ventricley. This spiral wave is contrary to the usual data wave we all enjoy. It eventually overcomes the usual wave.

The caffeinated coffee is nearly all used up & some decaf is already in the cupboard.

We carry on taking some tablets. No need to cut 10s into 2 x 5s any more though. #BreakingGood!
