3 years ago I add a heart attack while driving. I was rushed to Leeds hospital, where I add 2 cardiac arrests, luckily they revived me then they fitted a stent. After my recovery cardiac rehabilitation suggested I do some kind of fitness, so I started going to spin classes. It seemed to be doing me good for 12 Months or so. Then I started having days where I felt totally exhausted, eventually the days got more frequent and I ended up having to give up work. After several tests the hospital diagnosed me with ischeamic heart disease, and my mobility is practically zero
