Pete's angiogram

sassy59 profile image
16 Replies

We have just returned from Pete's angiogram appointment and he does have sarcoidosis in the heart. It has caused the heart to stiffen slightly so may have been there for some time. He is doing well though and is being monitored. We will wait for an appointment to come through for the Royal Brompton as Pete may be able to have a PET scan there which is more detailed apparently.

This is good news really because Pete now has the all clear to have his spinal cord stimulator fitted at Southampton in the not too distant future hopefully. I am breathing a sigh of relief and will try and keep him on the straight and narrow over Christmas.

Best wishes to one and all and breathe easy. Take care. xxxxxx
