Appointment with cardiac nurse.

Visit to cardiology today. All good. Medication seems to be working.I was concerned about the fluid on my lungs. The nurse advised me to increase my diuretic.

Not to worry too much about the 1 litre that the consultant advised me to have. Said about 1 and a half to two litres.

Can't believe how much better I feel since I started on the medication.

Long may it last.

Will need another x-ray to check fluid. Hope it goes away.

Heart MRI on the 8th Feb. Fingers crossed for a good result then.

A good day. 👍
