Heart attack

Hi I haven’t posted anything in a while . On the 19 dec I woke up with horrific chest pain . Ambulance called turned out I was having a major heart attack and needed a stent fitted . Got all that sorted a week in hospital .. back home I rested was good . After two weeks I managed the stairs by myself and walked around the garden . Ended up back in hospital with chest pains . They think my immune system is fitting the stent and the whole episode.. with muscular damage in my heart . So sitting in hospital Waiting to be told if I can go home or not finger crosseds . Just amazes me that my condition ie lupus is always dragged into it . Cheers for reading happy new year . Barbara

Hope you are feeling better Barb and the new year improves for you. Rest rest rest not that you can do much else if in tier 4. I have restarted some of my hobbies in 2020, took a while mind to settle but now reading more, sewing more and wondering why I ever stopped and trying to get out for exercise every day. I hope that you rest up but find something to help you through this difficult time. It is beautiful here, cold mind frosty and white, take care M x
