All the best. svety. I know the feeling well. Get your treatment sorted out and then you can do the PR classes which are excellent. xx
On the positive side you are seeing a doctor quickly and hopefully they wil be able to sort out the blood pressure. Thinking of you, sending lots of love and good luck xxx
Hello Svety, I do hope your appointment goes well and they sort you out! PR is so worth it if you can keep yourself on stand by for it. I did a course over a year ago and a nurse phoned me this morning to see if I would like to go again, sadly I have transport issues so will give it a miss for now but I really felt the benefits of getting fitter. Happy Birthday Wishes to you, hugs huff xxxx
hufferpuffer, Is your PR at the hospital? Even so, I thought you could arrange hospital transport for those sessions. I did here in Canterbury. They take ages to come and fetch you and are sometimes late, but they do it. Mic
Hello Mic, I don't think I can get transport but will ask the respitory nurse when I see her at the end of the month, thank you for asking, hope you are well, take care,huff xxx
