Hi Guys received confirmation that the transplant consultants have arranged for me to have a full heart scan, cat scan, and several smaller tests to be done this Tuesday and Weds in my local hospital and will contact me to attend my first transplant consultation once all the tests results are in. already had a great day until then got my Disabled Blue Badge this morning completed my DLA with help from Fran who is my lovely carer for 42 years before I got ill, now she can get paid for it so I might give her £5 a week of her carers allowance if she behaves herself, Then at 5.30pm receives the great news about the scans and tests.mattcass

Sounds as if your fears of being "too old" for a transplant were just fears. It shows how we are prone to try and cross our bridges before we come to them. I have to keep telling myself firmly to take each day as it comes and not worry about next week (or even tomorrow).

I hope everything goes well for you Matt and you will soon feel so much better, sometimes the waiting can be the worst part. Take care. x
