    @Nightcity , the stresses of life i think has a big impact on our sleep .

    Stress is not helpful to any of whatsoever .

    I remember when i was young i fell asleep in the afternoons too .

    Wish sleep problems were easier to tackle than they are .

    @Rachel_Scope yes this morning at 10 ish, it's not heart failure but some oddities require further investigations in 2026. he'll phone mum tomorrow and put me on a couple of things over Christmas to control the symptoms, hoping that mums heart failure will be reversed with this ablation on 18th then she can have the kidney transplant next year.

    @Strawberry1 Absolutely no thanks required it's always an absolute pleasure to spend time talking to you, I'm trying to deal with my anxiety and stress within my limited ability to do so

    And this lovely post is the proof that you are NOT the problem.

    I am ok honestly I'm used to it all, I'll just be happy if mum can get a normal life back thankfully if they get it right hers is reversible the type of heart failure and the kidney failure. I am just paranoid after the cardiac arrest on last attempt, but they'll sort the heart first and be sure this time before she goes back for another try with the transplant.

    I'm so glad it's not heart failure @Nightcity. I hope they're able to control the symptoms whilst you wait for more tests. I really hope your mum's ablation goes well. How long will she need to stay in hospital afterwards?

    Thanks Rachel

    it's a day procedure so she should be home same day, then we just have to hope it works, they stated that the cardiac arrest during march original transplant attempt was caused by atrial fibrillation speeding the pulse to insane levels and it just stopped beating. apparently it's so rare even the surgeon was shocked, so the ablations desired goal is to eliminate the AF completely, if that's successful the heart failure caused by it will start improving possibly also fully resolve THEN she can go back for kidney transplant without any risk of a reoccurrence.

    Oh that's great that it's a same day procedure! The cardiac arrest must have been so scary. I really hope it's all successful so she can then have a kidney transplant.

    You can't beat yourself up for something out of your control. ADHD can be very difficult to live with and impact a lot of areas of your life but you are not a problem because of it. It also comes with many strengths and positives that you should focus on.

    Having your own radio station is amazing! How often do you present on it and what kind of music do you usually play?

    I hope your appointments went okay? There are about 6 pages of posts since you wrote this to me so you may have already updated, so I apologise if I missed it.

    I'm doing really good. Had a few health scares this week but looking on the bright side!
