They tried to contact me yesterday but call wouldn't go through. So they phoned me today I spoke with a specialist nurse for a good 20 minutes. And she listend to everything I had to say and she wasn't concerned that it was heart related which is a huge weight off my mind! 😅. Wow as I'm making this post they called me back again and when I go for my echo they want to check that my blood pressure after I have been lying down to see if I have Postural hypotension. I have been suspecting this for a while now I even mentioned to them before. So will be interesting to see what it shows! They are fine with my getting in touch with them about results for blood test aswell and ecg so yeah very productive phone call!

Sounds like a very productive phone call. It must be a bit of a relief knowing that it might not be your heart anymore, but at least they are still doing the investigations.

Do you have a date for your echo yet?

[Yumz199725 in reply to Tos92]

Thanks tos yeah major relief! Yeah my echo is 24th of this month. X

That sounds very promising and such a relief for you. I think if she thought there was anything serious you would have been told to go A/E. so she was not that worried about your symptoms. If they eliminate all the heart checks then it could be anxiety. I get dizzy if l feel anxious and that’s putting it mildly. It causes all sorts of weird feelings. You have had loads of stress recently and it hasn’t helped, but you need to know for certain and needed a check up. Keep us updated. 🥰

Hi,

My wife has recently been diagnosed with High Blood Pressure and was advised to buy a home test kit, which she did ( £ 20). After a few weeks she went back and her bp was under control. Being nosey, I used it to test my bp and I found that mine was ok also. My GP has told me that it is beneficial to keep tabs on our bp, so that we know if there has been a problem.I test my bp about once a month now just to put my mind at rest. I hope that everything turns out fine.

Thank you!. Aw sorry to hear your wife has high blood pressure hope that's being managed with medication. That's great that you now have a home test kit for your bp. I have one now some one very kindly gifted it to me on here sorry can't remember there name. How often should I test mine once a week or month?.
